Hey Everyone, I just found a scratch in the paint on my color matched front bumper but I'm not really sure how to fix it since it's not paint on metal.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do?

I went to the dealer and bought paint that matches the truck for $8(1/2 fl OZ). it worked OK.
After I side swiped another taco then I realised the the stock front bumper is black.
The dealer paint (white) worked good enough.
