Not seeing a pic. I'm assuming it's a scratch from a shopping cart. First, try to see if it will rub off. If not, run your fingernail over the scratch and see if it catches. If it catches, then it won't buff out and you'll need touch-up paint (or, if it's really bad, a new bumper). In the alternative, you can just get used to it I guess.

Anybody else notice that about 50% of the new guy's first post is "Can this be fixed" or "is this a write off"?

Can this be fixed?

EastBayCanuck · 08-25-2015, 11:51 AM

pretty sure that'll buff right out

From what I can tell by your description of the damage. You'll be better off ordering a new bumper through the dealer and having it paint matched. Trying to fix that level of damage will never look the same.
