In my experience, no. It's pretty expensive to do in the first place since the fixtures used to do it cost serious $$$ (we've got an old one at school that cost about $60K...and it's not even top of the line). Plus once metal is bent, even if it's bent back into it's original position, it's still more easily bent than when it was originally cast. Also, if the shop that does it is off by even a few millimeters you can get some real problems. That's not too common these days what with the laser systems they use, but that shit just adds more to the cost. I hate frame damage.
