I was backing out of a driveway and this 4 runner was coming around a corner at like 60mph and was on a crash course with the broadside of my truck. So I had to expedite my *** across the road to avoid getting t-boned. Hit a dirt embankment
Any idea on how close I can get it to looking unharmed again? Chrome has a tiny scratch, and the dent is about 1/4" deep.

Block of wood, get a few of them, as they will splinter, or a supper hard piece of rubber on a metal body block, and a BFH, it should come out.. Good luck, that fukn suks

I say make a matching dent on the other side, and tell everyone it is a factory option "STYLE" bumper.
I have done many. The good news is looks smooth. I would take the bumper off and slowly work the dent in from the outside. Don't try hitting the dent in the middle of the dent or you will crease it and complicate things. You will have to find a method that works for you. I prefer a surface that gives, like maybe a tire that is mounted with air in it, and a 5 lb sledge hammer. Adjust blow pressure to get the desired effect.
