Front Bumper Fix

Someone in an SUV scraped our front bumper - left a note that just said "Sorry" and nothing else! There is no dent, but the paint on the top side of the bumper just in front of the grill is scraped.

I was wondering whether its better to paint or just buy a new bumper.
In addition to the scrape, there are stone chips, scrapes on the bottom left and right side, and a few other marks. [Yes, I've asked my wife if she plays in a bumper car game :-))]

If buying new/used is the recommendation, then any ideas on where to find one?

This is a '03 G35 Coupe in Invory Pearl.

Any advice is appreciated.

Why on earth would you buy a new bumper if the paint is scratched? If you like throwing away money go ahead. Just get that think repainted mang!

I would just get it resurfaced and painted. Probably $350-500 depending on
where you take it.
