Default Is it worth it?

Ok, as many of you are, I'm a perfectionist. My SRT has not one ding or scratch; however, on the sharp edge of the rear bumper cover, some jacka$$ must have dropped something on it while parked at work (the one day I did drive it there) in the garage. There is a 1/2 inch long X 1/8 inch wide gash in the plastic all the way to the black plastic. Basically, it peeled a chunk of paint off and took a little plastic with it. I sanded, covered with like 6 coats of touch-up paint, and polished, but it is still visible due to obvious reasons of using the little brush-type of paint. It is difficult to see, but it drives me crazy knowing that it's there. I was quoted about 500 - 800 bucks to have it repaired with no guarantee that the paint color will match perfectly. I even ordered a pint of factory paint and clear coat to use with my detail paint gun, but I've been hesitant to try to blend something that small and make things worse.

Please see the poll!

Thanks guys!
