Stand bending ?

I am sure it has happened to a few of you have bought a nice exhaust which fails the stand.
1/ What is the best way to secure the scooter whilst taking the stand off.
2/ Best way to bend the stand without damage, I am only looking at 10 mm from the top right hand bend. I only have a small vice on the bench.
Any good advice would be helpful, thanks.
