I made the trip up to the dc metro area for the weekend.... met up with some friends, threw back some drinks... yanno the usual. Made it from dc back to upper marlboro without incident. WHY DID I WANT TO PARK IN THE GARAGE. depth perception = fail. nonetheless, just got a scratch on the front of the car.. nothing major, but enough to drive me nuts.


what do you guys use for minor bumps and bruises for the car ?

Can't really see too well from the picture. Is there only paint exchanged or is there damage/dent to the front bumper itself as well? If it is just a paint exchange(his paint on yours), and it hasn't gone down to the primer layer on your car, then you can use a medium grade rubbing compound as well as alot of muscle(or buffer) to remove. Other than that a re-spray is gonna be in order. Bumper covers are always a pain to maintain to 100% perfection.
