So I parked my car and low and behold some jackass scraped the side of my rear bumper (white body is great, shows black scrapes and chips). No actual body damage but it left a very unslightly scrape that took off the paint. Any suggestions? Its a little to big to use the paint pen I think, so will I have to spray it or get some guy to repaint the whole bumper? Thanks for any suggestions...

 

 

Yes, as soon as I posted I realized this, but not deep if that helps, can't take a picture until later, stupid job...

 

Before doing anything , make sure than the paint you think is scraped from your car isn't actually his paint leaving a trail on yours. If that's the case, and it may be likely, the abrasion can be buffed-out. A pic would really help.

I checked and its actually paint scraped off, sad face....

 

looks like his actually paint is gone along, but he has the other cars paint on there too. I would touch wash it, buff and touch up and rebuff to try to hide it more

 

The primer on the IX is white. If it's white on the X, as well, we're in business! If it's gray, you'll need to have it repainted. Look at some of your paint chips. What color is the finish underneath? Fingers crossed, if it's his paint, you may be able to take care of this in a matter of an hour.

 

Yea, I'm kinda afraid of that, as well.

 

I looked at the paint and it looks like the primer is gray. Great, how much do you think it would be to patch something like this up?
