paint job

ok i have some scratches on my bumper...no dents or deep gashes. But just soft scraping of the paint, so not it shows the black plastic underneath. Is this something I can do myself? Like sand it down then spray paint it over?

Thanks

You can do that but it's never going to match. Most of the time it will end up looking more noticable than if you didn't paint it. Take it to a body shop and get an estimate on how much it would cost before you consider doing it yourself.

Personally I would just leave it since it's not metal.
