My girlfriend found her iPad on the Floor with the bottom right hand corner bent. I would say the bend is significant. The display has separated near the middle of the right side.
I have googled for replacement back covers but I have come up empty. Does anyone know where I could get a back cover? Is there any difference to the iPad 5 back cover?
Is this a good question?

You should post a picture of the damaged corner. Most techs just (gently) hammer out the dents. You can use a tool like this one (sorry, iFixit doesn’t seem to carry this).
Here’s an example:

Link provided heads to an opening tool..anything wrong with the Url, with my browser or I didn't get how one is supposed to use that to reshape corners ? :)
@arbaman you flip the tool around and use the rounded edge to form the corner of the iPad. I use a jeweler's hammer so that I get a light touch :>).
Ok, got it now :) I made myself something similar starting from a large flat head screwdriver which I round shaped with a grindstone..it's somewhat smaller and fits iphones corners too. It has the advantage of having a nice handle with a larger surface to hammer if you need a not so light touch ;)
