I'm no expert either...

the front bumper is plastic, so hopefully they use a plastic bondo filler...can google that

Once that is done, should be sanding and smoothing in that area...even some heat gun action to undo the bends the brackets caused!

Then paint, painting can go about two different ways from what I've learned....first being just using the paint code specs or actually paint code from a paint supplier....

Normal a low par shop would just strip and paint the whole bumper...a higher shop would try and blend the paint code with something? Not to sure what to darken or lighten the paint to match your other panels that have been weathered already by the elements!

hope that makes sense, and maybe others can chime in!
