Deep Scratch

I just found a small but deep scratch in my rear bumper (Damn rocks on the Hwy [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG] ). Anyone know how to fix it or how much it would cost to bring it to a body shop?

i had a deep scratch on my trunk, (like somebody key'd it). It was down to the metal, so I brought it to my local body shop made an appointment finished up in a day... $200 [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/IMG] & I truly believe somebody key'd it to, it was about 3 inches long, in a really odd place..

I also have some Honda touch-up paint, but that stuff is terrible.. or maybe its just terrible on silver cars?.. anyhow it looks grey instead of silver.

an autobody shop is the way to go, if you can justify spending the $$$

Yeah the touch up paint for the silver I have had a really hard time getting to match on long lines for other chips I have found it works okay. But yeah it was like 200 or more for my dad to get his deep scratch fixed on his car I still think it could have been a key mark but dunno what it was.
