Someone backed into my rear bumper of my 91 Camaro Rally Sport and put a dent in the corner about the size of your fist.

I tried pulling it out with a dent puller but the screw would give loose before popping it back out.

I was wondering if I removed the rear bumper and took a rubber mallet could a knock it back out.

How hard is it to remove the rear bumper? I looked under the bottom and saw a row of about 8 bolts. I could never determine the size of the bolts. After removing the bolts are their any other things you have to do to get it off?

I am not the best mechanic so I need a good detailed description.

Your help would be greatly appreciated,

On the bottom of the bumper, they are just plastic push in connectors, be careful removing them (use small screw driver, to pry & pliers, to pull) because they break easily, but can be purchased in any good auto parts store. The inner spare tire plastic cover & the cover that goes against the rear (inside trunk) will have to be removed to access 3 nuts (10mm, use a deep 1/4" drive socket) at the very inside corner of each side of the rear of the car, the 3 nuts also have to be removed on the driver side corner, you don't have to remove the entire panel to access the nuts, just remove a couple of the plastic screws. Also the 2 screws that hold the rear license plate holder will need to be removed.
