Default Bent hood on ends, easy fix?

hey all, i bought a hood. and i laid it upwards on the carpet for about 2 weeks. well when i went back to put it on the car, i noticed it had pretty bends on each end. i'm guessing from letting it set too long.

i was thinking of maybe laying on some towels and maybe trying to hit with a rubber mallet to maybe get back into shape.

is the idea dumb, anyone know if this will work and won't cause more of an issue?
