Agh, curbed it.

So, either myself of the previous owner of my P5 managed to get the front bumper too close to a curb and cause some minor scraping (had the car a couple weeks and just noticed it today). The scrapes/gouges are all along the very bottom of the front lip.

What do I need to do to repair this damage? I am assuming just sandpaper and a jar of touch-up paint from the dealership? Or is there more to it?

Unless it is really noticable and you have done body work, it would be advisable to let it be. It would cost less money and time to buy a front lip and get that painted (at a body shop of course) if you are really concerned with the look.

I'd let it be. Bumpers are "destined" to be scratched. If you don't scratch it yourself, someone else will in the long run (esp if you do a lot of parallel parking).

Let it be. I went car shopping for an used P5 and almost all have sustained a little scratch on the front bumper or even side skirt. One was even cracked! So if you want to touch it up a little, go for it, and I will stop there and put it behind you.
