    it's plastic, sir. you can opt not to have it fixed. it won't rust.
    but it does seem unsightly, especially to the owner.
    but to the other motorist... it's so common... we don't even think of giving it a second look, or thought..

    perhaps your insurance can fix it. all you will shoulder is the participation fee.
    some folks say you can have it fixed at your friendly painting shop, for less than the cost of the participation fee.
    repair quality varies, even in casa-supposed-to-be jobs.

    I was about to say, "Let it go and it will grow on you." However, looking at the pictures...

    You can try casa and see how much will you shell out for it and compare it outside of casa. If only the scratches​ were "hidden", you can follow the advise of this casa guy, let the bumper "gather more" and then claim from insurance.

    You might also try using a scratch remover as it might hide a few scratches and lighten some of it. Depending on your tolerance, you can decide from there if you'll have them fixed or let it "gather more".

    My car has several small scratches, and I have never cared about them
