Best way to bend existing body?

Can I bend this body somehow? My video shows exactly what i'm trying to do. 

I'm a 3 month user who is learning on my own, and it's been great! 

Thank you for any help!!

Few thoughts, lots depends on your details.

 

I would Extrude a curved plate, in the view you want the curve, 

then from the side sketch the shape the plate is to be, and Extrude Intersect for the initial result, then add the bush/ bosses.

Add cuts, additions and lastly fillets, 

but it may not suit what you want.

 

There is no Bend function, 

 

Share the file with some guides there are many options, to get it done.

 

Might help...
