Definitely fliptops. Bruce will make you anything and should have all the ampeg accessories necessary to make it look right.

Fix it if it's not too mangled

Take it off, put it on an old piece of wood and gently tap the dent from behind with a hammer until it's back to normal, or at least close enough. Have a can of the right kind of spray paint ready for touch ups.

I'd lay a piece of wood (like about 6 inches of 2X4) over the dent, then hammer.
