Default Aligning the front bumper

I was wondering if anybody knows how to align my front bumper without having having to replace it. The previous owner's wife went over a concrete parking barrier and kind of pulled it out went she went in reverse. I went to a local Audi specialist and he said labor alone is over $300.00 not including parts. It's kind of embarrassing driving around like this. I just wanted to know other alternatives.

I had this same problem with my wife. Take off the bumper and you will have to hammer out the mounting brackets on either side trial and error until those flush back up and then don't forget to flatten out the metal bracket on the bottom that keeps the bottom plastic flush or it will catch again.
