I had a small dent in my rear right bumper area (clearly a shopping cart) and I just got the whole bumper repainted for $550 cash. I went to a shop that paints supercars, and they paint matched. Nobody can tell where the damage was.

You can contact your local PDR guy (Paintless Dent Removal) to see how much they would charge. My friend does it so I get it for a discounted rate, but it sucks. I've had a kid kick a soccer ball straight into my qtr panel on my integra. Left a good size dent.... him and his dad were able to pull it out to almost how it looked before. Saved be a BOAT load of money too

It is amazing what a PDR guy can do. I had one on my door removed and it was like magic. Cost me $70 from a friend.

His setup, all the lights and the tools of the trade and keen eye during the process was amazing to watch. It was like he was prepping for surgery. Folks in this profession are truely artists, much respect.

Before you take it to any bodyshop for respray, visit your most referred local PDR.

Correction, mine wasn't a dent, it was more like a scratch. My paint was chipped in 2 places and caused a tab in the bumper to dislocate from the fender. It looked hideous.

Yeah I know, it sure sucks when someone hits your car. I mean just the other day someone in a 2012 Blue IS-F ran into someone on camera and drove off. I wonder who was driving this car?

An obvious hit-n-run, like this, is terrible, but glad they got it on camera. A USB F tends to stand out, so hopefully the FRS owner can get him.

That's my Scion, and your IS-F. Seems like you left me with a lot more than two dents. How do you suggest I deal with you?
