The title made me think this thread would be a tad perverse.

At least it's only on your bumper. Going to need to repaint it.

Just buy some touch up paint. If it was me and I were to get it repainted, I'd get the bumper wrapped in xpel or something similar afterwards.

After reading the title I was going to say that the wife was having that time of the month so she had to hand me off but it turns out my story was irrelevant.

Too bad ......

Yep, touch up paint. After a couple of months, if it still bothers you, have it repainted.

Have a happier new year!

Totaled. That's a shitty way to start the new year.

Also, touch-up paint can repair your totaled car.

You just need some touch up paint and patience applying it to a clean bumper. Definitely a non issue. Not entirely worth getting it repainted:

Also the only issue I see is the disappointing title and contents
