Broken intercooler fins

Guys i have a aftermarket intercooler with a row of bent fins... some of them look to be broken. My question is will the intercooler still function properly.

How many fins? How broken? They may be able to be straightened out with a "fin comb", it all depends. Show us some pics.

as long as the metal "rows" between the fins don't have holes you are fine.

just find something long and skinny and you can probably straighten the fins out.
