New rear bumper or can it be fixed?

I was sat stationary in car park yesterday, minding own business, when thud, car rocked - looked in mirror and had been reversed into by an elderly gentlemen Rolling Eyes

Little paintwok damage, enough to ignore out of sympathy to the chap, but.. the side part of the bumper had popped out and upon further inspection there' a lug on the bumper that affixes bumper to inner wheel arch which has broken.

The bumper popped back into place but it's not as should be and I suspect will pop out again when caught by wind.

Question is, anyone seen this before? new bumper through insurance or is a run of the mill type repair for body shop?
Need to do something.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Plastic weld should sort it out no bother.

Thanks Chaps,
seems there's a little more damage than initially thought Sad
It wasn't a light impact.

After further inspection by LR Body shop it's looking like a new bumper.

Ouch
