MAYBE, I'm assuming it didn't go down to the metal (or plastic, since its the bumper) if they're just scuffs. If not, you may have to go to a shop and get it repainted

Rep Power: 0 Did the same thing expect into my mom's car..the scuffs can be buffed out pretty well, but I have a small crack in the plastic, which needs extensive work. I just got some touch up paint, filled the crack till it evened out with the rest of the paint and wet sanded when needed...pretty simple...

Rep Power: 372 You can get the scuffs out with a Buffer or by hand if they arent that bad. Try using some clearcoat compatible rubbing compound. I recommend 3M. After you get the scuffs out go over the spot with glaze and wax to bring the gloss back to the paint.
