Auto body repair & detailing: Front lower bumper cover on 2004 T-Bird dent, hair blow, blow dryer

Question
Is there a way that a circular indention about 6 inches around can be "popped out" on a 2004 T-Bird bumper?  My husband parked my T-Bird in the garage and it rested against the riding lawn mower's tire.  Now I've got a dent and it is driving me crazy!

Hi Dru,

Sometimes you can use heat to help reform it. I would recommend a heat gun to do this. If you don't have one try using a hair blow dryer on the high heat setting. A hair blow dryer won't get as hot as the heat gun and may or may not work depending on the thickness of the plastic bumper cover. However, this should also keep you from blistering the paint. If that doesn't work I would take it to a reputable body shop for repair.
