Sorry to say it, but because it's so new, your best bet might be the dealer. A junkyard probably wouldn't have one that new, and if they had to ship it, it would be very expensive. UPS/FEDEX won't ship a hood because the box is larger than their limit so you will have to locate an independant freight service to ship it to you.
I needed a new hood a few months ago and got really lucky because the junkyard around here had one that fit (my car's a 98 though). I checked into finding one somewhere else and found some decent deals, but shipping was going to be $150+ so it wasn't worth it.
Another option might be to just take it to a body shop and see what they can do about straightening it. Let us know how you end up resolving it.

Good point CBass. Very new, hard to find. Might be worth an insurance claim.
