Minor accident suggestions

Other night on way to work, a possum ran out and I hit it, tore my lip spoiler off on passenger side, broke the piece that holds the bumper to the fender(the piece above the marker light) can still be tightened and put back in. A few rivets on wheel well popped out, all which is a simple fix, but paint flexed and cracked, :( so now on side below marker light there are flex cracks and 2 flex cracks on front on side near my t3 ports. I'm assuming I will Need entire front painted? Should I stick with just sanding cracks and repainting or go with new bumper, maybe? I don't want a stock ss bumper, maybe zl1 or something similar to the t4 style if I do. I'm not sure if it flexes like that, later could be possible issues? This sucks, last time I had a ss hood painted on a 2002 z28 to put on a ss hood, color match was horrible, made the shop paint it 3 times, first 2 looked totally different color. Won't use that shop again.

There are no dings or dents, just the paint flex.

Thats what mine looks like just not as pronounced as yours and the bumper can be put back just need the rivets which probably popped out of the wheel well. Hope someone can come in with a fix for the paint issue though
