years ago i used a lighter and hammer to get a dent out of my x-mother in laws bumper after i hit someone in a parking lot. lol. would have been nice to have a heat gun.

thats what he used on my friends integra he had a missed alligned"hit something" the front bumper molded it back to place. body shop recommended it and it worked pretty good.
