Top Frame on 180 all glass aquarium

[tsdid]

I have a question, I bought a 180 gallon aga it has two supports front to back. I was stupid and set a metal halide fixure on top of them to test the fixture, with in minutes the halide got so hot I started smelling plastic. It left a little burn mark and the one brace has a small arc (drooping) when I say small it may be 1/4 of an inch. Will this be a problem? I havnt gotten to fill it up yet. I have also read that you can order this part, has anyone replaced on of these frames before?

Sorry but I have no idea.
Bump for someone with more knowledge.

You should be able to go to your lfs an order one for it.Some of your larger stores keep them in stock.

The supports on an empty AGA 180 do droop a bit.
Snap a pic if you want a more definite answer, but from your description I'd say you are fine.
