Default Frowning Bumper Fix

SO after I hot a deer my bumper seems to be frowning is it bent or can I just have it taken to a body shop to be adjusted?

I'd like to know this too, mines a bit tweaked and has about a 1.5 inch gap between the panel under the headlights and grille to the bumper, and one side is "frowning"

my truck was "frowning" also. I fixed it by taking off the bumper and using washers to adjust how it sat and it looks great now. but I didn't hit anything though.

Yeah, the holes in the bumper brackets give you the ability to adjust it a little. Had to do it to mine thanks to a body lift.
