    Ouch...

    Paint shop should be able to fix the fist pic...

    The second pic looks like it's been hit at some stage and shifted the mounting clips, or broken them

    Sand, body filler, sand paint. Probably would have to take the rear bumper off to see whats wrong with that.

    Hell dude.. I have a stock OEM bumper thats white... But shipping isnt worth it. The side thats coming off of the body. Thats just like clipped on i say smack it back in place. As for the side thats damaged say try and pull that back out.. then fiberglass the back of it that way it doesnt sink back in then do as PROTO said.

    Its probably a bent metal bracket thats causing the rear bumper cover to pertrude like that. You could remove the bumper and possibly straighten the bracket again or replace it.[/quote]
