good old t-cut works well enough on light surface scratches, followed by a good bumer/trim product (recommend: auto glym bumper care).

The rear bumper black trim on a chromie is proper rubber. Very difficult to work with when recovering damage. However it's difficult to damage in the first place. The fronts however are ABS plastic. If the damage is deep you can flat it out and use stopper to initially fill the damage, then a high build primer followed by satin black.
Then again, the sections for the front ain't that dear to buy new.
