if u press it back in, there's always a chance it will pop back out. besides, if it's covered under warranty you might as well get it done right.

Use the warranty and get yourself a replacement Koni yellow.

Did these come off the new ITR or the old one? If it's off the wrecked one did it pop out during impact? If so I would press it back in and see how tight it feels.

since it is pinched between the LCA, it isn't going any where. Will the bushing spin in the housing? Even if does spin it probably will not have any play between the LCA once it's tightend. If you do get a new one, I would think about replacing the other side as well (depending on how much abuse it has seen).
