Default Dented Oil Pan

I will try and get picks up here soon but I learned a hard lesson last night. I spent Friday installing the AP racing brakes and after the fronts where done, put the wheels back on, rolled the car back into the garage and was going to hit the rears this morning. I woke up pretty early and decided to get an early start, put the floor jack under the car but didn't it in the right place, jack slipped and crushed my under shroud along with leaving a sizable dent in the oil pan. Its not leaking thankfully but I am not going to risk it. The dent is just behind the drain plug in the middle and close to the bolts. Double checking where the jack is resting is just as important as double checking the jack stands. My new one is being over night'd from nissanraceshop.com.
