Chipped M Bumper, Splitter

Hey all. So was being stupid and hopped onto a side street a bit too quickly, and nicked the bottom corner of my front bumper and am way too OCD to deal with it. I went to an auto body shop to get quoted just for a cosmetic paint over in just that location.. It's seriously so small. $400.

Should I get carbon splitter, that way they'll just cover it up? Or any other alternative solutions, besides letting it be? What is the majority vote on top splitters, not the one piece that goes across, but the two side pieces. And would definitely prefer ones with no bolting etc, just 3m, as I just had my shoulder reconstructed and any labor is a no go for a few months.

Thanks!

I would say get it fixed unless your going to lower the car a bit. Otherwise the splitters will throw it off with it being at stock height.
