Default Canopy problem

I hope this dosen't post twice:
Canopy Damage

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm posting for a friend, who damaged his -7 slider canopy by placing it too close to a space heater. I can post pictures later, but wanted to know if anyone thinks a canopy could be reheated and shaped back into the proper shape. The deformity is along the front of the passenger side of the sliding part. It appears to have "shrunk" slightly about 1/4" from the rivet line and has a slight noticable bump. The damaged area is about 10 square inches.

Does anyone have the rear half of a -7 slider for sale in the event his cannot be saved?

Thanks in advance,

Mark
