If you end up getting a new one, it costs somethin like $300+

(I hit a raccoon last summer. He was a fat bastard, too .. took out the AC Condensor AND the radiator.)

There is a tool called a "fin rake" that will put the fin back in shape, a radiator shop will have them. I don't know if you could buy on from them but they might fix your problem for cheap, because its pretty easy to do. Or find a Snap On dealer or a Mac dealer they'll have one you can buy.
