Scraped my front bumper by pulling up to close to curb
Any tips on fixing paint on front clip after letting it rub on a concrete curb? It's just the underside of it, but it's noticeable. Looks like the plastic has gouges in it. Can it be buffed out so it does not stand out as much or do i have to replace the whole damn thing? So mad at myself right now..:(

Need pics but if it is like mine you can use some touch up paint to help make it less noticable. Mine is still there but you have to get down low to see it. You can get some touch up paint from the dealer.

Did the same on my old 2LT when lowered. Sanded and used touch up spraypaint and being black hid it somewhat. I then bought a Stillen splitter and improved looks, hid the gash all at one time.

I did that and rashed my front passenger side wheel. It is what it is. If it's bad visible then it can be touched up or repainted. I touched up the rim and didn't worry about the bumper because it was underneath.
