So I accidentally slightly twisted and broke the cap off of this 225 fuse. (don't ask )
How fucked am I?
The car still starts and everything seems to be working, doesn't appear to be broken, just a bit bent. Going to try to get a replacement one somewhere to keep in the car even if I don't need to replace it.

Have done the same thing in the past overtightening the nut. Readily available at ford spare parts or grab one out of a wreck.

I'm sure many have done the same, I know I have.
It's a crap design.
All you've done is split the cover, stick it back on and you'll be fine.
You can get a similar one from Repco if you really want to, it's just a Mega Fuse nothing special.
