Universal black should work because the RS5's are gloss black. It all depends on the extent of the damage. Post a pic and I can help you further. Sorry to hear the shopping cart got the better of you... I hate shopping carts. One day, I'll buy a beater and just smash into as many shopping carts as I can before the cops come

you could go to a body shop and have them mix you up a batch with your cars paint code so you could get it perfectly.

depending on how bad it is, Meguiars ScratchX 2.0 works great!

oh! I have another problem! My A/C works not well. I just buy the RS5 3 week! Before I thought that because of the weather. It's very hot here always 100°. But my friend told me it shouldn't be like that!!!Do I need take back to ask them to fix it??

draxcaliber

well...yeah, if your a/c isn't cooling the car down, then yeah, get that looked at.

warranty work doesn't cost a penny Scratch-X can make the problem area look worse on a gloss black car. Gloss black shows every blemish but there are methods to minimize them if done properly. Try posting a pic of the damage if you can so I can better help you.

OK i'm going to take a picture now!!

used it on my dads black ford ranger, looks WAY better than what it was before. it will not make it look worse on a dark car if done the right way.

With other methods, he may be able to eliminate the problem instead of settling for half-way but until I see what the damage is, I can't give much more advice.

sualwang

No, I can't do that!! It's too dark now !!

sualwang

I got the picture already!! Just washed the car yesterday. but got rain. Sorry that's dirty.

#202 touch up paint from Toyota

For the mark on the A-Pillar, I'd use the touch up pen or the matchstick trick. Then do some very fine sanding and a high speed polisher after that. As for the mirror, just have a shop respray it if you want it to look decent. It wont cost you that much. You could do it yourself if you are handy with a rattle can. I was thinking long gouging scratch down your door or something horrible. Good luck and PM me if you need any more help.

sualwang

thanks ! This is my first accident since I drive car in 2005. So a little worry about that!!!

Don't claim it on your insurance, pay out of pocket for the mirror respray if you take it to a shop. That'll keep your Car-Fax report clean.

I say you take it to the dealer. Each dealer has it's own body shop that they use. Since our cars ( I have an RS 5.0 too ) are glossy black it'll show even the smallest imperfection like Rangerryder said. To fix that scratch and have your car look like when you picked it up shouldn't cost much. I think it would be worth it IMO.

BTW what number do you have. I have 851/2000.
