If you sell it and someone questions, you have pictures to prove how trivial the damage was and how it does not jeopardize any safety related item.

Been there, buyer just nodded at my disclosure, felt good about the disclosure as proof I wasn't hiding anything and actually said that contributed to his confidence in the sale.

They will refinish the bumper cover so the only question is the paint match. The fender scrape...that is the item I'd want to know how they repair it.

You said it was already a good deal, probably just a better deal after...if done right. Reserve the right to walk away if not done right.

Here is what I'd do:
Offer $500 earnest money against the adjusted price contingent on receiving pictures of the in progress repair and it being done right. Write up a contract to that effect and define right as undetectable paint match and full behind the bumper safety inspection. Should be ready by the good weather.
