How to repair front chin spoiler???

Im not sure where to post this so I hope this is the right forum.Anyways,I got into a little accident with the camaro and need to repair the front chin spoiler.Paint is chipping and some of the material was taken off after the accident.My question to everyone is what to use to repair it?Does everyone use bondo or should I use something else?I did a search but only came up with repair on cracks on the sides no actual chipping in the bumper/spoiler.Here is a pic of what has to be repaired

2 part urethane epoxy. Eastwood sells it, and any parts store should sell it. It's not the cheapest stuff in the world, but it works exceptionally well. The only complaint I have about it is that because it's consistancy is a little different than the urethane, it's hard to sand a feather edge into it. I wound up using a skim coat of bondo to smooth it when I filled the license plate holes in the bumper of my GTA, but the amount of bondo was minimal, and 3 years later it still looks perfect.
