sounds like you need a body shop.If you were to do it your self, u need your base color,base coat stabilizer,clear coat,clear coat hardner,clear coat reducer.The scratch needs to be feathered out,primed and painted.To do it right ,u spot in the repair and then clear the complete bumper.U can spot in the clear ,but, sooner or later it will start to show a ring or die back.If the plastic is gouged, that will need to be filled.bshop should cost approx 200-250 hope this helps
