Default Door fix suggestions

So I got into an accident back in the fall, driver door has been dented ever since. It closes nice and snug although there is a slightly noticeable draft. I wanted to grab a new door soon but am hesitant because of the dented rocker (dont want the new door to not fully close).

Its not really an immediate priority but I'm open to any suggestions, full door/rocker replacement or just any way to make the dent less noticeable, kinda tight on money right now.

I tried attaching pics but it keeps saying upload failed

Hammer & dolly on the door to make the dent go away. You can pull on the rocker, it will either straighten or give way.
