Scraped front bumper, need a fix, pics included

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.

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