Hi guys,

I couple of weeks back I had a bad crash that destroyed the front left corner of my XTR. One of the things that has bent is the shock cap as seen below.

I found this video and it seems like this might be a weak spot?

Team Corally doesn't seem to have any upgrades for this, has anyone found any good aftermarket parts that would fit? The guy in the video suggest some M2C Tekno shock caps, but they seem to be different as they don't have bladder. Not sure what zero rebound means here...

mine has been bent for months its not got any worse so just left it
 
I've also got a bend like that in my shock cap (same one as the broken eye and shaft).
Still working ok, The slight misalignment doesn't have any effects on the shock movement. I'll change it if it breaks, but until then it's staying on.
