Okay, so I was parking my car and was not aware that I was so close to the curb and ended up running into it scraping the underside of my front bumper a good amount. The curb was maybe a little less than .5'' higher than the bumper and you can see the scrape marks on the front/edge of the bumper when looking at it eye to eye. What makes it worse is that the curb was painted white, and now I have white gashes and scratches on my bumper. Luckily the curb wasnt much higher and I didnt crack, directly run into it head on, or really mess up my bumper.
Have you guys done this to your IS's? What did you do to fix it (re-painting, touch up paint, wetsand & buff) or did you just leave it alone? Im thinking of possibly buying the lip kit now that I have cosmetically damaged my bumper, but would this cover up the bottom part of the bumper where I scraped it up?
Multiple times. I fixed it by getting in a crash and having the bumper replaced...
not too long ago i got curb rash, but it was underneath. even though you can't see it, i thought about getting a gfx lip, but it looks like the 09 is two pieces and doesn't cover the center (where the rash is)?
i recently got over it after seeing my friends' g35's and IS because mine looked mint compared to theirs lol. they're girls so they probably don't even care like how i do haha
I scraped mine the first day I got the car. Ooops! Used to driving a Mazda MPV minivan where I could just run over those concrete blocks. I'm not too worried, like other people said, you're bound to do it sooner or later.
the bottom of my lip is scraped six ways to sunday, and i'm not even that low. i just glop on some touch-up paint over the scrapes and call it a day. nobody can see it unless they tilt their head down anyway. in a weird sense, a scraped lip is kinda like a badge of honor
