2015 LT1 Rear Bumper Hit and Run

I managed to remove the black rubber scuff mark from what appears to have been a hit and run. The wheel appears to have caught the majority of the impact, but I'm left with these two cracks which measure about 3 inches.

This is my daily driver with 48,900 miles. It's already been hit twice in the rear and is certainly not cosmetically perfect.

I'm half-way between working some epoxy in or simply leaving it.

How would you guys go about it?

Leave it alone. Anything you do, short of sanding it down to the urethane base material and repainting it, will only look worse. With your luck, it might get bumped again in the future so why fix it.

You could take some clear touch up paint and hit the crack to keep it more water tight and then leave it alone is what I would do.
