My girlfirend backed her dads car into someone and scratched the bumper pretty badly. It's not dented or anything just scratched down to the primer.

Am I able to get an automotive paint and just lightly spray it to cover up? or will it need to go to a body shop and be done well?

The photos make it look way worse than it really looks because of the flash.

The car is standard black and it's a 2005 mazda 6, pretty basic color so I could probably get it from autozone or something.

Thanks for any help in advance.

 

probably can't do anything except to get it repaint

 

you may be able to get it to look a little better. you would need a PC or rotary, but you could probably get some of the surface scuffs out with a with an aggressive polish. the gouges that are down beyond the paint will require a repaint though. the body shop will likely sand and bondo the damaged areas and repaint the whole bumper.
