Doesn't look too bad! Looks like the plastic just dented in then popped right out. Sure, when it bent in all the paint flaked off... minor details. The only real damage is that little L-shaped cut at the bottom, easy to fix up if you so desire.

Sand 'er down, fix up that cut, and paint it up. Hardest part is probably just finding a warm garage to do it in... touch-up paint doesn't really do well in uninsulated garages when it's -20C out.

Edit: Never mind, you TO guys are right at the freezing mark. So for no reason I'll use this Christmas-themed emoticon:
