Someone hit my car last night and one of the lower ic pipes got flattened. I need to drive now, can't wait to replace it. Is there a way to unflatten it by hand? Or at least make it semi circular so I can drive. It's at the end of the pipe on the opening.

 

Sure it can be made semi circular again by the end.. but not with your bare hands... may need to pry it open with a suitable too... Picture would be helpfull to see what you are up against

 

When I say by hand I mean like using basic hand tools. I'm couch hopping right now and all I have is some basic tools and no money to buy/rent anything.

 

Thats really rough man... its beat right up... basic tools might not be able to fix it... give it a go, you have nothing to loose, if you have a flat head screwdriver, it might be you best bet with basic tools, stick it in and pry it open... but im affraid you may be **** out of luck

 

That's what I'm thinking v.v Trying to figure out if there's anything I can try besides prying it. I was thinking about maybe trying to hammer a wooden wedge inside.

 

definently give the hammer and wooden wedge a go... Good luck

 

Unfortunately I don't have either. I don't think prying is going to work.

I'm thinking about trying to make some ghetto piping out of whatever I can get. Just cut that section of the pipe off and grab some pvc pipe a coupler and a lot of duct tape lol.

 

Ask around and try to find a propane or acetylene torch. Heat it up and use a cresent wrench and other prying tools to open it back up.
