yea i seen that before i think it just works on metal though since metal has memory and tends to pop back into its original shape from rapid heating and cooling. i think.

let it sit in the sun, heat it up and pop it out. Thats a simple job. then buff it up and there you go.

The bumper is super easy to remove. Clips on the bottom. One 10mm screw on both sides of the rear bumper on the inside of the fender well, there is even a notch in the fender lining. Just stick your fingers in there and you will feel it. You also have to remove the tail lights. Behind the tails are more clips and one 10mm screw for each side.
All this takes about 8 minutes to remove the bumper.
Remove the dent...
See, super easy!!
