You might be able to pull it , but I can't really tell from the picture how bad it is.

I didn't know they could pull dents in bumpers. It's just a tap, but I want it gone.

Maybe, but if that won't work, maybe you can take it off and tap it back out with a ball pin hammer or something. Just throwing out some ideas.

Rubber mallet might be what you want for that job. You don't want to ding the chrome.
