Front lip damage

Hey I have a 2013 C250 and I was wondering if I can fix this my myself or if it’s better to get someone professional.

It's plastic. Not much repair you can do that will look good. If you are going to go thru all the work of repair and repaint, you might as well get a new bumper cover and get it painted.

It is plastic. You may be able to pop it out from behind and repaint area. Depends how perfect you want it to look.

Heat it up with a hair dryer and then pop it out from the inside. You will then need to sand it, apply bondo, and then paint it. This is the quick way. Not the perfect way, but it could work for you.
