seriously, need to lay off the caps lock.
but you'll have to buy a new bumper cover or fiberglass the back and bondo the front. fixing the bumper is not easy if you have no idea what you're doing.

or you can try your luck at a automotive store. Your color number or whatever is on the inside of your driver side door.

Post a pic so that we can see what we are working with here... But the way that you described it, your best bet is to just buy a new bumper cover and get it painted...

ouch...unless you have experience doing bodywork, i'd take that to a shop so they could patch it up right. otherwise u might make it look like a hackjob, which would b a shame.

I know of a place on ebay that you can get a prepainted from bumper for $360 if you're interested, you may be better off just buying the prepainted bumper and installing it yourself, it may save you some money. At least keep this in consideration. Talk to a body shop and get a quote or 2, but keep this as a backup plan. I'm getting a new painted bumper for my car when I can afford it
