Default Bumper Scratch... HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

<center><img src="http://www.x3lda.com/lmsdfts/P1010078.JPG"></center><p>
Long story, I dinked this guy in my school's lot, then i found out my bumper has a couple scratches (paint scratched off showing the black none painted bumper). I have the paint detailing pen and the bottle of paint with the brush...
Both i tried on my scratches on the car's body and both didnt come out too well...
How to use these things????
I got 600 and 900 grit sandy paper too ^^...
I also have the clearcoat... :\ but what to do if i dont know how to use ??? PLEASE HELP!!

Default Dink? That's a freaking CATASTROPHE!

Sorry, but that is really bad. You, let rephrase that, "I" would never be happy with a "touch up".

I would visit the paint shop. It's just looks too big.

Default cover it with some more stickers! stickers are cool & add horse power..................

seriously though, have a good body shop plastic weld the damage and repaint the entire bumper.
~ $300.00 ????

300$ to repaint and patch a bumper is a bit low... For great work i'd say 600$

throw them in the garbage and go to a body shop!
