damaged bumper

so someone decided to reverse into my front end while i was at my friends house. one of my friends said they saw a beige cavalier reversing close to my car but didnt think they had hit me. now we know they did. so anyways, do you guys think it would be cheaper to fix this or buy a new bumper? bumper is dented, scratched and clear coat surrounding is all cracked.

pic has glare from the sun but you can pretty much see it all.

Fix it. All you really need to do is push the dented part out and make sure you get it looking good again with out the dent, and then sand down the bumper and repaint it.

minor minor minor.

that is nothing to worry about at all.

can fixed in the driveway. remove it and fix it off the car, much easier and then you dont have to worry about masking the car off.
