After three years of ownership, I finally gone done it... I got my first curb rash. And it's quite the rash - not a scuff, not a chip, but full-on rash. And it's right on the corner of the front bumper. I'll save the sob story and just get to the point. I tried looking up solutions short of professional help and have come to the following:


- OEM touch up pens are probably a no-go for that size and width.
- STI front lip will not cover it as the "side winglet" will be just right behind the rash.

- Sand with very fine grit sandpaper to smooth out the surface and spray paint?
- Let time heal all wounds (forget it and continue driving without a care)


The thing is that I have Xpel PPF on the bumper too so it's kinda tricky doing any sort of painting and will be very expensive to have the film removed for the spot to be fixed professionally.


If there is any technological advancement in DIY auto paint repair that I've missed, please enlighten. Or any other feedback would be greatly appreciated.Thank you very much.
