Thank you.

    Thats through the paint, primer and in to the top layer of the plastic.

    If its an old car with not much value and you dont want to spend £££s, then a touch in brush carefully applied would keep your eye away from it.  its best to put thin layers on and i'd be following the line of the scratches and keeping a close as possible to within the scratches

    A smart repairer might be able to blow in the corner of the bumper, but its up in to the quarter panel too, so to sort if you'd need to be painting the quarter panel also.

    I'd probably go with the former, unless its annoying you that much that you want to spend £££s on it.
