Default Easy 00 sport bumper question

ok guys so im new to the dodge world but I have been reading on here for several weeks and I have learned a lot from others about my truck, so thank you. But there are still a few questions in which I couldnt find answers to...
1. What are the (front) bumpers on '00 ram sports made out of?
2. Is there any way to bend them back once one has a dent?
(I have heard a heat gun may work)
3. Was keyless entry an option or was it standard on my sports?

just a couple of questions to test the minds of the shade tree mechanics out there...
thanks for any and all help.

1500 dodge ram sport 2wd red stock everything (like i said im new)

1. The cover is made of a rubberized plastic over a steel frame.
2. It can bounce back after small impacts, but once it has been stretched it probably won't. The heat gun might work, but it could make it worse.
3. Keyless entry was an option that was part of a package available on all Rams. It included electric windows and door locks.

It included electric windows and door locks.
The security system was not included with power windows and locks, although thei were a required option. The security system was either a separate factory option or a Mopar accessory added at the dealer.

Nope. And what I said was that the option package (Customer Preferred Package 28H) that included power windows and door locks also included keyless entry. On my truck it was the SLT Plus Decor Group, which also got you the security system, fog lamps, steering wheel audio controls, 4-wheel ABS, Infinity sound system, illuminated vanity mirrors and a few other things.

See, on my truck Power Windows and Locks were included in the SLT Decor Group ASPP. How many bites does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop? The world may never know.

My truck did have the keyless entry, but somebody ended up putting a remote starter on it and I don't have the factory keyless remote. But mine never had the alarm on it.
