Default HELP! Bumper got hit by sand and tiny rock

hi guys, i own a 2006 honda s2k, since people in san diego usually drive SUV or PICKUP, i guess when i follow those cars too close during the traffic, some sand and tiny rock on the road hit my bumper when they take off or during the driving, which i think would the reason why my car is way lower than other people's car, so when i look closely to my bumper, i can see white dot all over the bumper, even the headlamp have some dot on it.

im wondering that is this normal? I mean does that happen to anyone else or just me? is there any products that i can use for the bumper? or i have to change the whole bumper? if i have to change the whole bumper, wat i can do after i change it to avoid that to happen again to my bumper?

thank you

A clear bra will eliminate further damage or some have used the clear Plasti-Dip on the front of their cars. Buy some touchup paint and repair the chips, or consider re-spraying the front prior to either of the above ideas.
