touch up paint doesn't hide on a pearl, I've done it on the bottom of the front lip, and it doesn't match very close. I'm not super OCD, but I don't want a massive difference between the bumper and the rest of the car, which it would be. I'd be fine for a rock chip, but something the size of a silver dollar, and a line right on the crease, it would show really bad.

But anyway, I found a shop with a couple references from work and very high reviews on yelp that would take the bumper off, fix everything and complete respray with a guaranteed match for 473 OTD. So I think that's worth the cost to have a match like nothing happened vs patched looking touchup.
