A new car? That's a little much. A new bumper is what I'd be aiming for. There isn't going to be any diminished value since it's not going through insurance (no claim, no record). The bumper is plastic so even if you wanted to sell it later, nobody would know it was a new, repainted bumper. Plastic panels never match the same paint depth as the other panels and besides you said you would be getting ppf over it anyway.
