i bought one off ebay when i had the same amount of damage you probably had, it was 100 bux shipped then 300 to have it painted. when i was going to have mine repaired by a body shop they wanted 630.00 to heat up the bumper pop it out and paint it....

Check the for sale section here. You might find someone that got a kit selling their stock bumper. If you hit it right, you may not even need to get it sprayed

i parked the car in the sun today and the dent popped out by itself... does this mean i could maybe get the bumper repaired for less than replacing one completely

oh and how is the fitment and quality of the one you got off of ebay
