Agree on taking it to a shop. In addition to the places where the paint flaked off, I'd want to get those ripple-looking areas up by the headlight fixed too. All of those areas will eventually crack and start to flake away as well. Might as well do it right all at once. It's still not that large of an area and white should be pretty easy to color match.

Paint shop would charge alot of money. Its a plastic bumper,the damage does not look bad. I would sand it down primer it. The trick is getting the white to match and blend but thats why you pay the paint shop the big bucks. You could do it yourself and get it almost there and if you are not satisfied then take it to a pro.
