Just done this to the bottom of my brand new month old bumper on my A4 on a stupid ornamental stone in the carpark at work today! Not a happy bunny!
 
Smooth the worst worst parts with 400 grit wet and dry, then fill the remaining parts with plastic filler. Prime and paint as usual.

I don't work in a bodyshop, but I do all my own spray work.
