Damage on a lease
 

So i did do a few searches on the forum before posting this up.
When returning a lease, Lexus usually has a examiner that looks at the vehicle and they bill you later.

This morning, my parents moved the car and side swipe the panel of the car. Check the photos. I still have 24 months left on the vehicle.

Do i take it to a body shop myself and get it painted or just leave it?

There's curb rash on the wheel as well.

When you return a lease they usually have guidelines is to what allowed, they do allow some scratches depending on their length. If I am not mistaken under 6" long is standard

Its the year 2014, we landed on the moon, engineered graphene nano tubes, and have machines that can see through walls and inside atomic particles but we still dont have a anti kinetic force fields around our cars. Anyways try using some scratch x 2.0 or mothers scratch remover, this has help me fixed most scratches on previous cars. And those bridgestone tires are terrible. You haven't experienced how smooth your car is until you had driven it with michelin or continental tires. Those tires will transform your car.

Well the photo i took was part where the paint was removed. I don't think any scratch remover is gonna buff that out. Do i paint it now or leave it for 24 months?

Depends if you can handle the look or not. You can paint it now and have a pristine car for 2 years, or your parents could move your car again and scratch it again next year. it's your call.

DO NOT take it to one of those "mobile" bumper painters. I've already had a bad experience with those guys with a previous car. Terrible work and overspray. Take it to a legit auto body shop if you plan to get it repainted.

Some of those guys do decent work though. I'll actually try some touch ups myself figuring the worst that happens is that I still have to take it to a body shop. I recently did some wheel repairs myself. You have to be looking for damage to see what I repaired and I'm not out much money.

Clean and buff out the scratches, then touch up the chipped area. A good touch up job won't be noticeable from a far and it'll save u tons of $$.
