Looks like we both lost!

 

Pics of the coon?

 

Couldn't find his little azz, was big though!

 

Time for a sport bumper

 

It looks like you can just pop that out and call it a day. Use a heat gun if you need some help.

 

Boy, this brings back memories...

Yes I was gonna give it a try next weekend. Do you think I would have to remove the bumper?

 

I would recommend a friend to tag along with you, would help a lot. Just use painter's tape to measure and remeasure before you drill.

 

it would probably help so you can push it out from the inside. I don't think it's going to look right even if you get it to pop out but its definitely worth a try.

 

I had the exact same dent on my bumper.... u can push it out from underneath without lifting the car up. Losen some bolts holding the underbody in place, get ur hands in there and use a heat gun in it. Be very careful, my damned paint chipped during the process and needed to get repainted. Being that ur car is black, even if it chips a little it will be harder to spot than what happened on mine. Do it asap, before the bumper cover retains the shape.

 

that sucks! Hope you get it fixed soon.

 

I would not remove the bumper. That is a pain. As stated above, try to pop it out from underneath. Try heating it up before you pop it and there is less chance paint will flake off. As long as you get the basic shape back, I wouldn't worry about crease marks--I don't think anyone will notice. Post up some pics after you fix it!

ouch, hope that is easily fixable

 

Mt daughter hit a cat. Roughly the same place. It also cracked the wiper fluid box, which in right behind the right front bumper. The wheel well liner was also gone. In addition to the dent, which looked just like the OP's, the plastic had a tear in it and the paint was crazed and cracked.

No way to fix it properly myself. The total bill (at a very high quality and respectable body shop) was $950. This included a brand new Infiniti bumper and replacement parts (the wiper fluid pump was also destroyed). Did not include blending. He let me look at it before blending and it was close enough.

Bottom line, inspect well, especially behind the bumper.

 

/\ Ditto... I didn't know I blew out the washer res until I got home and tried refilling it just to see it pouring out al over the garage floor.
There's a lot going on behind that corner so do check it out well.
