Exclamation Dent in rear bumper.... how to fix?

I made a dent in my rear bumper. My dad got most of it out, but its still slightly dented and don't know how to go about getting it fixed. Does anyone know how to locate a new bumper? I tried looking on the net but didnt find anything. Or is it cheaper to go to a body shop? Please help!

Wait until after SEMA and grab a body kit piece. Honestly, it would probably be cheaper than going to SOME body shops.

SEMA is an organized event of aftermarket products/cars. I believe its held end of October to November, of every year. Its where all the major and minor aftermarket companies display their goodies as well as seening different cars with the goodies.

Yeah I believe its in Las Vegas, yeah if your a car enthusist its like a fat kid with cake (however that saying goes), or a kid in a candy store. The major manufacturers display their cars all pimped out as well as others. I would love to visit as well. Good times!

'paintless dent repair' could be an option. Just google it and see if there's one in your area.

The rear bumper is plastic... I had a huge dent in my front bumper and it popped out with my hand. I was stoked. Is your dent small?
