Default Scion TC scratches

i got some pretty nasty scratches on the back of my baby from backing up into my moms car. lol i feel so stupid. is there any way to fill in some deep scratches where paint came off? people have just told me to like get the paint pen from the dealership and it should work. any other ideas other than repainting my bumper?

heres a pic of it. i dunno what i should do. im planning to get my tail lights smoked out so not let moisture get into the crack of the tail light. i dont like how it fogs up. the scratches along the tail light can be buffed off i think? im just worried bout the places where the paint came off. any ideas?

i have the same thing on my front bumper, scratches and scuffs everywhere, and paint chips on the hood from the highway. looks like crap....i think i may just put down the $ for a brand new painted oem bumper from the dealer.

Default Scratches

Ask around at some of your local dealers most dealerships have guys that touch up small to medium scratches on there used cars so that they dont have to pay for a complete repaint in most cases the guys that do the touch up work can easily match the factory paint code. It wont make the damage disappear but it is a lot less expensive than body shop work and it can be a good inexpensive fix.
