I'm betting you could take the bumper to an automotive paint place and ask them to match it for you.

John, I aint covering up my nasty bumper. Been there, done that. It was a Mitsubishi Eclipse Turbo. What a pain in the ass to put on and take off and it flapped around on the freeway and scratched my hood.

It all depends on whether you want a clean car or not. You can't do a paint job in your garage with cheap spray equipment and come close to factory paint matching or blending. Not even with 10 years experience.
