Curbed the Front Bumper

Hello everyone,

I bought a used 2001 Base with 19,000 miles on it back in November. It's a great car, but I am accustomed to driving a Truck/SUV. I pulled just a tad too far forward into a parking space, hitting a cement curb and it scraped up the bottom of my front bumper. You can see from the pictures that you can't see it when looking directly at the car, only when looking at the right angle, or when when you're under the car.

I searched around and have noticed that this has happened to other people, so how did you go about fixing this? I have a local body shop I trust, but how much did it cost you? I am planning on taking it in for an estimate but just want to know what to expect.

Quick background of the car: Single owner, he only drove it when it was sunny and above 70 degrees. Not a single scratch on the car when I bought it. It sat on a lift and was polished weekly. He had to sell it due to health reasons, and here I am with it now.

Thanks!
