stupid front bumper

ok when i was backing out of my driveway, my mom put a stump for the trashman to take away.. little did i know nor see this stump so i went right over it... the left side left a soccer ball size dent pushed in... some scratches, just the plasticy part...nothing hit/scratched in fender area... and what material is the bumper anyway... not my initial question though... im getting irritated looking at it... and want to get rid of it... now it seems like it would pop right out which im sure it would do, jsut not strong enough... its really tough... would it be easier to take off the bumper and hit it out myself... or take it to a body man and have him take it out and paint over it...and if i should do that how much am i looking at?.. or if i should just live with the paint scratches and do it myself... how do i go about taking the bumper off? thanks a bunch....

what year model is it?

00' V6. coupe.

its prob best 2 take this to the shop. You could mess up the whole part of the body even more than if it was done right the first time.
