By "bumper" do you mean the internal deformable aluminium bar? If you simply mean the body work then you need to get the car further examined.

I doubt the frame or car has a problem. If it did then it'd be a proper hit and you'd have a stiff neck etc. The internal beam is there to protect you and the car from these lower speed type of shunts.

Do you know what's worse than a podiatrist with cold hands? A podiatrist who thinks that feet are hot.

Thanks for the tips everybody. You are helpful and I will let you know how this progresses.

LOL, not a friend. Guess you didn't get the joke/reference. Google: "Tanner P"
