it made a pretty good crack in it do u think that a body shop would be able to repair it without being able to see any flaws

Yeah. My wife got rear ended in her old little convertible Geo Metro. THe wreck left a hole in the middle portion of the rear bumper with a tear/rip down to the bottom edge. I came across a rear bumber at a good price and took it to the body shop along with the car to get fixed, and the guy said they would need it. you couldnt tell well the damage was after eing painted.

Im actually bidding on an LS1 nose right now on ebay that has a tear, as Im thinking about converting my hood, fenders and nose when I drop the LS1 in.

that would be too cool!

Another thing about the repair is that it should be cheaper for the paint portion as well as there will less area to prep and paint
