Need help assessing door swing into my bumper. Grrr!

Hey guys,

Parked at my sons school today and a car pulled in next to me. Seemed far enough away, so I didn't relocate which I usually do. To my horror, she got out and walked around to get her dog out and let her door swing full arc into my (luckily) bumper which is covered by 3M.

So, I'm trying to figure out if the 3M did its job. It looks like there is raised portion at the leading edge of the impact. That's throwing me off. Is that bumper plastic or 3M being shoved forward? Do you think my bumper is unscathed under there or dented? I think plastic doesn't really dent but scrape right? How can I tell without removing the 3M?

Thoughts? Anyone with experience weigh in? I don't want to paint it, but if I do I'd rather she pay than me.

Thanks,

Shroom
