I'm not sure if this is the right place to post, but I have a question about license plates.

I had the front and rear bumpers of our 3-4 yr old Vios repainted. Wala siyang major colission/dents, but may mga minor scrapes from grocery carts (dahil sa mga tamad mag soli ng cart sa parking) and reckless motorcycles/cyclists na pilit dumadaan sa mga gilid-gilid while stopped in traffic.

The bumpers are easy to fix-pull off & respray, but my problem are the license plates. They have a few gashes (bangga din ng motor)

With 2 pices of wood and a metal hammer we've managed to somewhat flatten out the dings, but they can't be repainted kasi some kind of laminating sticker na ang ginagamit ngayon sa plaka (latest seriest na black and white), and wala sa skill ng pintor to reproduce the QR code (hirap gawin yun, graphic artist na siguro for that).

Any ideas on how to restore them? Lagyan na lang ng white sticker yung gashed part (approx 2 inches long)? Hindi naman grabe (napunit or anything) but my thoughts are since ginagawa na rin lang, might as well try to restore them as best as we can. Is it possible kaya? Thanks in advance for any who'll reply.
