I'd just use a 2 part epoxy and try to texture it to match as best I could.  Paint/dye it afterwords.

Around 8 months or so ago a member did a post on how he brought his back to life. They looked original.  He did a whole thread on it

I was considering using a clay bar to make a mold. 
Then firing the clay so that it is hard.
Next apply some sort of epoxy that is not sticky like glue but will hold a shape.
Then just press the mold onto the epoxy to take care of the gouged place.

I havn't done this yet, just thought about it a good bit.
