Bumper scuff

Post by Col661 » Thu Dec 22, 2016 2:27 pm

Hi guys, I don't usually post on here buy last night, some t**s pot clipped the rear of my bumper and left a nice scuff/scratch :x . I've given it a clean and there is a scratch and a slight deform down to black plastic. Its not massive, but easily visible on an all but immaculate car, very very annoying :( ! I think its too much for a home touch up but too little for a garage. Whats the experience with driveway repairs like 'Auto Restore' or 'Chips away'? Any insight appreciated. Pics of scuff below. Merry Christmas one and all.. except for the :wkr: who clipped me and I wish them driving lessons!

I haven't used them, but chips away seem to do a decent job. Just see what reviews your local CA agent gets.

A would think a road side touch up expert would have that looking like new in a few hours. Have a good one. :thumbsup:
