front bumper cover dent

I'll post a picture tomorrow when I get a chance, hoping someone can confirm it's the factory flaw.

It's not really a dent, more like a small ball had hit the bumper and caused it to look like it was ever so slightly caved in. Is this the infamous factory 'warp' mentioned in this thread? I've been racking my brain and the Internet trying to figure out what to do and even though it's not perfect, I'd really like confirmation that this is actually quite typical and factory caused. Someone said they posted a picture of this dent in this thread but I'm not seeing it or a link.

I know without a doubt I've never hit anything with my car....so it bothers me, I thought it was the neighborhood kids that seem so fond of playing around my car! Anyone got a pic they could load so I can cross reference? Or maybe a link to the original thread about this dent?
I've seen a few picts and posts on this. It appears to be normal for this bumper. some are worse than others.

you could take it to a PDR tech and have it pushed out. they would use a heatgun and push out from behind. pending on how bad the memory is on the plastic, it may not come all the way out.
