Tape off the area with masking tape and plastic trash bags leaving only the damaged area exposed (entire front fascia should be covered in addition to the wheel and front quarter panel on damaged side) to protect from over spray. Sand the abrasion down with 800 grit sand paper in order to smooth out the scraped surface being careful not to gouge the plastic bumper further. once the surface is smooth spray 2-3 even coats of primer for your base coat of black paint to stick to. let each coat dry 10-15 minutes before spraying another. once your done with your primer move on to your base coat 3-4 coats of black automotive quality spray paint should do (you can find a good color match at autozone for about 7 bucks). once your base is dry spray the area with 7 to 10 coats of clear coat (7 bucks at auto zone) ensuring you do not lay down any coat to thick as the paint/clear coat/ or primer will run. take your time lay your coats down evenly and it should turn out fine. the car is black the scrape is extremely low and with patience and a steady hand this problem will go away for less than 30 bucks. I did this myself about 6 months ago (before I wrecked it and had the whole thing replaced anyhow) it came out great and my car is crystal red (very difficult to match). hope this helps bro.
