The bumper shocks are probably 12-16 inches long. You can try heating it up and bending it just make sure that you have a gallon jug or two or water handy. Your only other option is to put it on the frame machine and have it pulled out straight. The last car I had to send out to have pulled for that very thing set me back $250.00. I thought it was on the step side, especially considering I am in the industry and all, but that was what he wanted and I have been dealing with him for years. I would imagine that there is a minimum charge to put anything on the frame machine and that is all there is to that. You are right in that it will most definitely effect where everything lines up and getting it done right is not going to be cheap. You know the saying, "you can have it cheap, fast, or good. Pick any two"
