Default Scratched my front bumper. DIY

Few days ago I disagreed with a brick wall and scratched front bumper of my Forester.
As I never did anything to my car before I decided to give it a go and fix it up to my best abilities myself.
The scratch was a small area but very deep so I had to work hard with 180, 240 sand paper to level up plastic as much as possible.

After that I filled the scratches with filler few times until the area become smooth. I had to wash the area with vodka between the fillings to clean it up properly.
Wet sanding with 1500-2000 sand paper until the area is completely smooth.
In the end sprayed with Prime, so it looks like below.



Next step would be painting after I receive 26D Subaru Silver paint from Germany and Clearcoat Layer to make it beautiful as it was before the scratch.

I will post a picture when it's done.
