Bumper Bender

Is it possible to fix the fiberglass bumper on a 2004 FLR Century Class?
It looks as though if it were off, that it could be popped out with a rubber mallet.

While backing at a t-stop, I dented the passenger side bumper while foolishly driving my right steer tire over a curve.
I had the right angle and speed to avoid tire damage, and my mirror was not close to the lamp post, but I did not consider
the concrete base that the lamp post was on, until I crunched up against it.

Luckily only the plastic/fiberglass bumper was popped in or dented. Not being a safety issue I did not report it because
there was no damage to any other property. I should have I know but I really did not want to deal with night/weekend dispatch.

This has been a few weeks ago since this happened,.. I wish there was some way to pop it out as to avoid reporting the issue all together.
Last month, I had a non-reportable incident and like a naive dummy I reported it. Because of the fiasco that created
my trust has been diminished significantlly.

Any advice?

 

OK great so what to do now? Say it happened at t-stop here? Or road debris?

 

OK, get the point. Any advice on how to report this??

 

I actually don't know how to fix it. I tried to find all of the bolts just by looking at it but could not. I tried to unscrew some with a torx bit and one got stripped.

I might just call it in when I go back on duty. I'll find an appropriate pole with no witnesses or maybe road debris.

But please, any other advice is greatly appreciated,..

 

Yeah, I'm trying so hard to think of one. One that is straight forward and dry cut.

I had a trucker tell me to say I got hit buy another truck like it was a hit and run. But that sounds so bogus, plus I don't think that the damage would be consistant with a truck hitting me.
