Based on your rather limited explanation we cannot make out what’s actually damaged/how bad it is. You should upload some clear pictures.

 

That being said, I highly doubt that Acer will give you a warranty due to physical damage of the laptop body/enclusure (that is probably also caused by you?).

 

Is the red fan cover made out of plastic or metal? If it is the latter, you can probably VERY CAREFULLY bend it back into place? But all depends on how the damage actually looks, so take some pictures...

Is the damage just aesthetic, on the chassis of the laptop? Or is it internal, as in the hardware?

Really can't understand what you're saying.

 

If it's just the chassis, don't bother trying to repair it, put a piece of tape over it or something and call it a day, it just isn't worth the time and money to repair a broken piece of plastic. You could potentially buy a new shell on ebay or some other website, but really, not worth it, especially if you fuck up during disassembly and break it even more.
