What should I do? Someone hit me and I kinda fixed it...

Here is a before and after shot. How can I make this look better? Or should I just repaint the damn thing? Someone hit my car while I was away and this was the best I could do.

i thought the plastic was black underneath. is the white the other cars paint? if so, a clay bar may have taken it off.

the after shots don't look that bad. are you planning on a mazdaspeed bumper anytime soon?

Yes, the white was the other cars paint. I was able to get that off but there were a lot of scratches left behind. I then used some touch up paint for that and this is what I am left with.

How much would that be for a bodyshop to fix?

Around 250-350 bucks. Depends on where you go, and whom you know.
