Evo 8 clutch advice

I have a 04 evo 8 with a comp stage 2 clutch. I broke the c clip that hold the wedge collar in the pressure plate and when I pulled it apart noticed my clutch fingers are slightly bent. I ordered the act monolock collar now trying to figure out if I can run me pressure plate still. The clutch only had 8k on it. It is 5 thousands off on one side where the wedge collar goes into place. Thought about mabye trying to bend it back myself but I'm not exactly sure what to do.

If its that minimal I'd run it. I just wanted a better idea of where they were bent.

It's where the throw out bearing would engage into is where I measured off. I broke the c clip that goes on the back of the stock wedge collar that goes into that circle in the center of the pressure plate witch is where the throw out bearing enages into so one side of the circle is 5 thousands off from the rest

hopefully the monoloc will keep it all aligned which it should vs the 2 piece. have you've contacted a shop for a opinion? maybe ER?

I have not called them I usually try to resolve the issue of forums and such before calling and bugging them.
