Scraped front bumper, need a fix, pics included
 
Guys i scraped my front bumper on a curb pulling into a parking spot :(

Doing that really sucked, lol, and even though it isnt visible while standing looking at the car, it certainly bothers me!

i would really like to fix this myself if possible. Here are the damages:

Can some of you kind folks tell me what the best approach to fixing/touching this up is for these types of scratches? Thank you all!

There's nothing you can do without making it look like a botched job or shit. If you want to cover it up, vinyl wrap the lip there.

Good excuse to buy a front lip :)

Ok, lip and vinyl wrap are too viable and appeasing options. Now the question: which one?!

Stillen is what i will suggest. Just because it wraps around the bumper and it will fully cover the damage.

PM me and ill hook you up with stillen :)

Or tape off and plastidip...so when it gets damaged again you can just peel and respray...
