gonna be tough to find a replacement bumper of the same color since the newer style 7th gens have only been out a year. *2001, 2002, 2003 bumpers will not fit*
If you go to repair shops, they'll probably tell you the whole bumper needs to be repainted. That is a pretty big mess
a tree branch landed on my trunk while i was driving, but it only left light dents and a deep but small size chip in the paint. and then a deer tackled my driverside door, so now my paint dont match... dumb nature
good luck pare!

Rep Power: 0 From The Pic It Doesnt Look That Bad Try Buffing The Scratches Ou.t If It Doesnt Has Any Dents Try also Taking It To A Body Shop To See What They Think Before Buying A Bumper

New bumper with paint was gonna cost me $650. So I took that money and got an entire lip kit, which covered the damage anyway.

Rep Power: 0 I would say just try and buff what you can until you figure out what you want to do with it because from the looks of it I think you could buff most of it out. Come here to AZ and I'll do it free of charge at my work
