You can either use comprehensive to fix it, pay out of pocket, or try to get his insurance to fix it. Or you can live with it. Since you live in a big city it will probably happen again, unfortunately. (Another reason not to live in a city!)

If it were me, I'd live with it for now (or touch up paint). In 2 years your bumper will be trashed from rock chips anyway. Fix it down the road when you decide you want a perfect bumper again.

I was going to get my bumper repainted on my WRX, but then I realized I would never get that money back. I don't think these minor cosmetic blemishes annoy a used car shopper as much as it annoys the original owner.
