Default Rear bumper repair

Seems someone was interesting in playing bunper cars with my T/A and smacked my rear. Not much damaged but there is a crack on the driverside of the bumper. The crack isn't flush either, so it is an eyesore. How does one go about repairing something like that? I'd like to atleast get it flush, so it won't look toooooo bad.

Take it to a body shop? <img src="images/icons/confused.gif" border="0">

I had my bumper cover damaged a while back. I could have had it "fixed" but being as my car was in great condition before that happened I wanted it to be in great condition afterwards. I also have 0 deductible so I got a whole new bumper cover and then sold the old one, which was easily fixed sicne it didnt even have one single crack on it.

Personally I dont know how fiberglass is after you have it fixed or even if it can be fixed properly.
