Help! I need to replace a dented bumper!

I've got a 2001 explorer sport and was rear ended a few years ago. The bumper is discolored and sags at about a 45 degree angle. I see this a lot on these trucks so I assume it's a common problem. I'm a novice but want to replace it myself to save a few bucks. Anyone ever done this or have any tips/tricks on how to go about doing it? Also, if it's just the brackets that are bent, can the bumper be repainted and what are the steps involved?
 






the quick easy is to replace the whole rear bumper AND brackets.

4 18mm bolts and the bumper will be laying on your chest.
