    remove the bumper, heat it up with a heat gun, punch it back out buff, shine and good as new :cool:
    about 3 years ago my ex backed into my truck with her dads acura and dented it the same way...plastic is flexible and fixable the moment it happens, if you like it like that and try to bend it back later it will crack and crack the paint

    Just read the post on an improvised Tacoma tailgate lock/ deterrent using an SAE # 20 hose clamp from 3/4" diameter to 1 3/4" diameter. Then I went the the local hardware store and bought one for $ 1.50 including taxes. Now I am good to go.

    Worked the first time I tried. It's all good now.

    Cheers,
    Barney

    Thanks for all of the helpful tips on the bumper guys. My plan was already to heat it with a heat gun and then push it back out from the rear. I just have to wait until the morning so I can run to my shop where the heat gun is.
