To me, it looks like a hit from a screw or bolt head that was holding on the license plate of the person that hit you. It is unlikely that the actual bumper (metal part, rebar is used in construction, not automobiles) could have caused that mark to the outer bumper cover, unless the offender hit you @just the right angle.
re·bar [ree-bahr]
noun Building Trades Informal .
