Default Dilemma: repaint the front bumper cover?

My car is going to be in the body shop to get a small puncture repaired on the rear bumper cover (I backed into a short, pointy thing). The estimate is about $320.

For another $330, I can also get the front bumper cover repainted. It currently looks like h*ll from bucket-loads of rock chips and a couple scratches. But, of course, it will just look beat up again in another couple years unless I spend really big bucks on a clear bra, which I don't really want to do.

So, do I save my money for something else or do I get my front done too?

Choices, choices ...

Default well, if you get the front done...

you can have them remove the liscense plate and fill the holes... unless of course you dont have a front plate anyway..
