Default how to go about fixing my bumper?

Someone hit my bumper and left some paint and took a chunk of mine off leaving it a black spot which is now not flush with the bumper since the paint is gone. 2 part epoxy,sand,primer,paint? Theres also a dime sized whole in the bumper too

You could do that or track down a used OEM bumper. Any of the bumpers from the cars with fogs will work.

it works great, sands ... well it sands good enough. I actually am using alot of it right now on my bumper project. Worst problem I have run into using it is its a b*tch to shoot out of the tube.

mixes great goes on easy enough(especially for small spots) oh and can be sanded in 30mins helps keep my project moving!
