i have done the same... except i didn't bend over to check the bottom. it seems that even though the car is supposedly level with other cars, the tc is easier to scrape. wtf?

Well I haven't scraped the bottom of my front bumper, but someone did hit my car in a parking lot. I was sad and still am. Basically a minivan backed out really fast and as he turned his bumper scraped mine and removed about an inch of paint while also leaving a 3 inch length of junk (rubber maybe). I'm having a hard time getting the junk off.

You think the dealer will charge a lot to get that small part touched up? Will it look really bad too as far as paint matching goes?

I scrapped the front a little on my parents driveway, forgot to enter at an angle, at this point i don't care, it's not overly visible and it's inevidible.

Long story, but it cost me a total of 180.00

I got rear-ended recently, had my hood repainted at the shop, and they chipped my front bumper...

5 year warranty on all newly painted parts, WOOT! Rock chips and road damage are COVERED!

Power Collision is awesome. You should look around for deals like this in your area, folks!
