Paint help for my 911

[petop]

Girlfriend just sent 2 pics of a nice scrape on the rear of my bumper done by a kindly person in supermarket car park. Needless to say didnt leave a note or anything and left.
Now it doesnt look that bad but of course in the great world of Porsche ownership it wont be cheap.
Looking at pics, what do you think will be the cost. Now being in Afghanistan i have had to resort to emailing for some quotes. Porsche approved repairer is getting back to me but they have said Porsche will insist on a complete respray of the bumper. Any ideas??
Anyone know a good paint guy who wont want to do the whole bumper. Yes its a Porsche but its 10 years old and its only small.

Leave it until you get back and you can take the car to a few places. See the whites of their eyes so to speak!!!

It looks small enough for a Smart repair.

Not sure why u need to go to Porsche, many a good paint shop around and I suggest it's about a £300 job

Thanks for the recommends guys, much appreciated!
I would be far less than £300 for that and if it wasn't perfect, it would be free! It would be easy to keep the repair really small because of the location of the damage, to paint the whole bumper for it, would be ridiculous. I now have premises where I specialise in "express repairs" which are often an inconvenience for a traditional Bodyshop and therefore overpriced. My website address is now co.uk, not .com and I also have a Facebook page with examples of my work, so please take a look and get in touch if you would like me to help.
