What's the best way to fix this :'(

Will touch up paint do the trick? or is there a better method to fixing this?

Go to a local body shop or get a recommendation on a good one. That needs to be fade blended and good painters will know how to do this. Get a few estimates and actually to ask to see a blended panel. Typically body shops are always blending panels. Touch up paint will not work since it needs a flex additive added to the paint. Otherwise it will just crack off in months

3 options really
- touch up paint yourself (cheapest) - get a reputable shop to use touch up paint for you (pretty cheap) - get the shop to do a full paint correction (not cheap) you get what you pay for. |

The minute you spend any money fixing something so small you'll just scratch it again on something else. Just touch it up and try and not think about it.

Buy a cheap knock off lip to cover it

Depends on how much it bothers you. If you are looking to completely eliminate the scuff. You are looking at ~$500 for a repaint of the front bumper. I would see if a blend is possible. Then move on.

Hide it by buying & installing the lip lol

I say do it right instead of it looking awful with touch up. Yes it will cost more but just be more careful.

If you don't have a clear bra on the car, just drive it until it needs to be repainted from rock chips. I have something similar, plus license plate holes. I figure I'll just repaint it and fill those holes in a couple years when it actually needs it. Small stuff like that is inconvienient, but I actually forgot all about mine until I just saw your pic, lol :thumbup:

I would get a front lip. Scuffs on the front bumper is bound to happen again. It's inevitable like rock chips.
Think of it as a battle scar :) |
