Well my sister had the car tuesday and I guess someone in her school's parking lot hit the car. The dent is maybe 50 cent piece sized right in the middle of the bumper. My question is if it would be cheaper to just buy a new bumper or have the dent hammered out and I'd guess the bumper would have to be re-chromed?

=p I'll see if I can get some pictures

Just buy another bumper....much cheaper than fixing and rechroming yours.

Yeah, by the time you ship, rechrome and ship again you could have bought the replacement and a whole nother front and rear back up and probably still have paid less. I hate that this is the kind of disposable world we live in these days but it is. Given as such you may want to fool around and see if you can't pop the dent out yourself, if the chrome hasn't cracked that is. Certainly nothing to lose.
