My new to me SSB roadster came with a 3" scratch on the front bumper that was past the paint and into the plastic. I bought the correct touchup pen along with the clearcoat.

I did the best I knew how and it still looks like krap. It's too dark and too rough around the edges. And every time I look at this nearly perfect car all I see is this scar on the front bumper. The decision is to remove, sand, prep and re-paint the whole front bumper so it looks like new, like the rest of the car.

I have been searching around for the correct paint and am a bit confused and uneasy. Can someone who has already painted (not with touch up paint) or had painted their 2005 SSB advise or recommend the correct paint, brand, and where to buy it?

Thanks in advance.
