fixing rear bumper dent?

i wish i could take a picture, but anyways, i got a nice sized dent in the corner of my rear bumper, would it be worth it to try to pop it out and get the whole rear bumper repainted, or should i just get a new bumper and have it repainted?

You could heat it with a hairdryer when you pop it out to prevent it from cracking. And itll also make it plyable. But i would go get a good J.Y. bumper cover and paint it so i know it looks right. If you pop it back out the plastic/rubber will not be its original shape and will have some creases in it.
