Kia Sedona manuals https://www.kisedona.com > rear_bumper_cover_repa...

Take care not to bend or scratch the trim and panels. 1. Remove the rear combination lamp cover (A) using a screwdriver or remover.

Pop the Hatchback open and remove the connectors
from the top of the bumper cover.

Optional Step: Using a Floor Jack, raise both sides
of the car in the back, supporting both sides with
jack stands, and remove the rear wheels.

Using Torx Bits, remove the inner rear wheel well
lining.

Get behind the rear wheel well and loosen the bolts
holding the bumper brackets on. They're pretty
difficult to find and remove. Be Patient. Do the
same to the other side.

Remove the rear bumper cover by pulling the cover
outward from the part nearest the wheel on both
sides. Once removed, take off the 2 black mounting
brackets from the bumper cover.

Good Luck

Most dents can be popped or tapped back out, provided it has not crumpled or creased the metal.

Bumper bar? Skirt?
There is a bumper reinforment behind the bumper cover.
Front or rear???
Either way there are some plastic retainers on top. You may need to remove a grill which would have some sort of retainer. The retainers usually have a center section that prys up some and the retainer will then pull out.
There should also be some retainers on the undersides of the bumper covers.
There is just about always a bolt going up through the bumper cover into the rear quater panel or front fender right in the wheel well edge. Sometimes there is a guide that the cover slide onto as well. You may need to remove the tail lights. There will be nuts on the inside behind the trim panels or the headlights. they usually have some clearly seen bolts holding them in (about 4 give or take)
Unplug any lights and they can usually be left in the bumper cover.
Then off comes the cover.
From there you may find a styrofoam pad. Don't lose that as it helps the cover keep its shape in the heat. And either the reinforment will be bolted or welded to the frame rails.
