Looks easy fix to me don't just bash it though get someone to pull it out far better finish achieved if you do that as it's been pushed back so logic dictates you pull it forward or is that just me
if you have to do it yourself it is possable to pull it with ratchet straps but a bit of messing about needed for this to happen and someone to help also
I'd be looking for a front panel like you said and also get some primer on the damaged area as if in so many months you decide to do it the exposed steel will be rusty not the best start
