Rear bumper cover
While backing up, I backed into a branch. I now have a crease running about 8 inches starting from the just over the brake light and running down the side.
Is there anyway to take this crease out?

It is a 2 part epoxy that is sold in body supply places. You will need to grind the paint off the damaged are and 2 inches into the good, surrounding area. Feather the edges. The surface must be rough for good adhesion. Thn mix according to directions and allow to dry. If I recall correctly, a heat lamp is recommended. Finish it as you would bondo, then repaint the bumper.
