Need scratch advice.

I have a pretty bad scratch on my new G35, The guy I got it from ran the back plastic part of the bumper into his stucco near his garage.

I don't think I want to spend $500+ to get it repainted, I would be satisfied to just make it look less noticeable.

The paint is pretty much gone from the black spots, in the pictures.

I was thinking buffing might make it look better, any suggestions would be appreciated

Thanks

The paint's completely gone where it's black. Buffing isn't going to make it any less black.

Now, getting some touch-up over the black and then wetsanding and buffing will make it less noticeable.
