I WAS REEEEAAAALLY MAD!! What a blond thing to do not to see if anything is blocking your drive when backing up. Well, what's done is done.
On the upside, I'm surprised as to how sturdy the bumper is on the Z. My car has just some swirl marks/dirt/scratches, however my mother's car (05 Altima) has a huge dent on her bumper.

Is there something you guys can suggest to use to remove the black dirt marks and swirl marks and the paint from my mother's car that stayed on my Z??? I saw commercials for the "scratch doctor", etc... does that stuff really work? should I go to a detail shop and see if they can buff it out?? (the swirl marks I can remove with my fingernail). Does the paint filler pencil really work?? I really hate to get a new bumper nor have mines painted, as the paint will fade differently then the rest of the car.
Any suggestions are welcome.
and sorry, I had to vent.
you realize the bumper cover just sits on top of your impact bar...even though u think there is no damage since it looks cosmetically, the impact might have been pushed in, those things start at 1200 dollars

Try using a less abrasive polish next on the spot. its probably dull from the rubbing compound and should get shinier (sp?) with a lighter polish.
