You might be lucky.  Check to make sure no part of the metal base is actually in contact with the bottom of the motherboard and fire it up.  If it works then an hour with a screwdriver and a mallet should sort it out.

Fingers crossed...

Edit:  Considering the amount of force that would need to be applied to the side of the case to bend that metal strip, if it was done in transit while the case was wrapped in bubble-wrap then I'd expect to see some sign of an impact on the outside of the shipping box.  The A2000 was built like a brick toilet and designed to survive a direct nuclear strike.
