Chip from parking (GD1, Hyper Blue)

So in old town Alexandria, I parked in a real tight garage and since I'm used to parking in reverse, I hit a slanted cement wall where if I parked front first I would've seen the cement with spray paint saying "front park only"

What sucks is, my spot specifically was the only parking spot that had that diagonal slanted cement!!! it sucks cause I was only looking at my rear view camera as that is what I am used to. Still doubt I would've noticed the wall was slanted from my mirror.

Any ideas on how to fix this chip? its pretty obvious. Sorry for the mess. It's rain dried up. It's clean now. ; )

Thanks!!

That's deep… It's going to require some wet sanding and multiple coats of touch up paint and polishing ..... if you want it like nothing ever happened, Id get a quote from the body shop on this one

+1

If you want to do it yourself, pick up some Kombi putty, it fills the deeper chips and gouges great, sands nice and it's cheap. Then touch it up with some paint.
