Scratched bumper

Well, I scratched the hell out of my bumper last night. You never realize how thin Mitus paint is until you see how easily you can scratch all of it off. Anyways, the bumper is salvageable and can be repainted. Here are my questions:

Will this bumper fit my Evo VIII? https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=197953

How much will it cost (on average) to get the stocker repainted?

Thanks.

depending on how bad the scratch is, just use turtlewax rubbing compound to buff it out... worked wonders when i scratched mine pulling out of driveway.

I think it is beyond fixing, it appears to have scratched the paint off completely.
