Default spray painted my bumper now what do I do?

I had a long line on my bumper so I wet sanded and spray painted it.. So when I was done I let it dry and it looks like blurry compare to my other bumper and when I ran my hand by it, it feels very rough and I have a few drips .... I never done this before my first time.... Can you guys tell me what do I have to do to get the shine back? Please help.... I will post pictures maybe later on or tomorrow... Thanks.

umm...you can sand the whole thing down, fill the pitted areas and prime/paint...
but you'll never get that bumper to match without using automotive base and clear coats. Spray paint is a cheap alternative and is a little easier to use, but even the best rattle can job will never compare to a proper two-stage paint job.
