A great way to make it like new? Take it to a bodyshop.
I'm sorry for what happened but your question is just... funny |

It's an expensive lesson but not even close to the end of the world.
Welcome to the forum! Been lurking for a while, I see.

Don't think PDR and tubes of touch up paint will work for this...
So what those guys said! ^ |

Judging from the pictures, it seems like the front bumper just needs a repaint. Try to re-polish the headlight and see if you can get the scratches out. If not, then you will need a new headlight. To save some money, try looking for one here in the used FS section or on Ebay.
