mitsu does not sell the honeycomb separate. You can't get the MAF apart to put a new honeycomb in even if they did sell it separate. Straighten the fins best you can. If it looks good, call it a day. If you're worried, someone who switched to an AEM will probably sell you a stock MAF cheap. I did the same thing on my car, and bought a new MAF for piece of mind, but the dented honeycomb on the old MAF caused no issues for me, but piece of mind was priceless.

The car feels perfectly fine but I just thought I'd ask. Not going to effect performance of the car right?
take a allen/hex wrench of about the same size as the honeycomb, push it thru from the other side, should be able to straighten those out
