While camping I ran into something (while barely moving) and pushed the corner of my front bumper on my F150 up maybe an inch or two. It's not super noticeable, but it kind of bugs me. Is it fairly easy to straighten something like that out again?

It also cracked the plastic piece underneath, but I found a replacement online and it looks simple to put on.

Thanks!

What year?

If it's a current one, it's difficult in that it's hard to get the curves to get straight and good looking. If it's an old one, you might just need to use it to pull down a sky scraper.

It's an 04. It's the end of the bumper where it curves around to the side. The last half foot or so is the only part bent up. If I could pull it down just an inch or so it would probably look fine but I'm not sure what would be the best tool to do something like that.
