While I was working my second job over the weekend at a local ampitheater some guy walked by with one of those wheeled carts carrying an umbrella and scratched the lower left side of my bumper luckily I was right there. What should I use to fix this?

humm, it depends on how deep it actually is. :? Had a shopping cart run into my moms van and Meguiars Paint Cleaner and Polish fixed it up. She also ran into a mailbox :shock: , we had to take that one into the shop, but the scratches left over were fixed again by Meguiars, may take some rubbin but it got the job done for me..

Hoped that helped..

ok lava isnt that rare! ive seen more lavas then camo! A paint code is a paint code no matter what color- they will match it....

Two body shops quoted me between $250-$300 to paint the scratch on my bumper. Thay said that they will paint the spot and reclear the the whole bumper. :cry: I am going to do it but at the moment money will be real tight ...Father's Day, Wife's birthday June 26 and My mother's birthday June 29... :shock: :?
