Best thing for you would be to get the paint as close as you can, replace the bumper and sell the car [Seeing as you are already down on it before this happened].
Or sell the car and tell the new buyer everything on the up and up [subtract price of the bumper and what It would reasonably cost to get it painted]. Chances are the new owner won't be as anal about the color matching as you are since you worked so hard for it. There really isn't much that can't be at least very closely matched - it can't be all that bad.
Why would you park where there is a possibility of being hit anyway? I regularly park as far out as possible everywhere I go. If I can walk a mile to go in a store feeling fairly safe I'd do it in a heartbeat and my paint is nowhere near as fresh as yours. I always park near at least one or two obsticles like curbs, light towers etc. You're gonna have to work to hit my car.

trust me in parking lots i park as far away as i can. but i was in my friends driveway. i pulled up behind my friend cause that was the only spot. i left a goot 7 or 8 feet behind and i went inside to chill. then he had to go take his sister to some store to get cigs and i hear this crrraaack and my heart sank.


Ive had so much luck with this car. and it was all bad. Ive gotten hit 3 times with it when it was parked. every damn time i was hit i was f**king parked. I think its a sign to tell me to get off my ass and sell it. I mean, i love the car so much. i put alot of blood sweat and tears into teh exterior. but all it brings me is bad luck with damages.
