The paint is probably spider webbed.

lol yea just pop it out.... if you can id try to heat the paint up to about 120-140 degrees then try to pop it out. Heating up the paint will allow it to flex and not crack (spider web)

Nice ... you're a lucky guy

I see you are from California, I hope you are in SoCal.
If you are, then give this guys a call: http://www.denttime.com/paintless-de...nge-county.htm

My dad's M5 bumper was worst than yours, but those guys were able to fix them. We were amazed with the result.

Your bumper is fixable, no worries.

Browse their site's photo galery, you should see what thay can do.
Here's a sample:
