Unhappy Oops... How much is this going to cost me?



Ok, this little post just appeared out of nowhere...

It appears there's no internal damage, I was backing up real slow from a parking spot and the post was just low enough not to be visible... probably strategically placed there by a body shop...

The plastic is seriously bent though and has some creases in it that won't pop back. Luckily the light unit wasn't damaged at all - missed it by a hair. So there are 2 options I guess...

a) popping the plastic back once the exhaust has cooled down and live with an ugly backend
b) having the rear end plastic piece replaced

The question I guess is should I even attempt option a) myself? And how much should I expect b) to cost? Should I have a Porsche dealer do it? (they've been great to me so far)
