Curbed the fuck out of my front bumper. So upset right now.

It's on the front too so it's visible, gaaah.

Any ideas on a cheap temporary fix? Kind of want to just buy some vinyl and overlay it, like sticker bombing but minus the stickers.

Plasti dip the lower part in black? Would look a little like a lip. Not sure how vinyl would go over a rough scrap compared to plasti dip.

Plasti-dipped the two back emblems.

Went pretty well, but tore off a little bit of the corner of the first u in Subaru when I removed the excess. Will either brush some plastidip on manually or pull and reapply. Otherwise, it looks great on the SSM.

That sucks, my wife is crazy about this when we park the car and wants to get out the car and make sure I don't come close to the parking block, she is starting to make me paranoid also now, so when I drive I end up being like a foot or more away from the block - glad the car is short.

^does she have a sister? My wife uses the drive up until you bump or hear scraping sounds method. Luckily for me, she has not shown any interest in driving the BRZ.

No not yet, but there are definite holes in the clear, can see them and feel it with your finger. I shouldn't have waited so long to clean my car

I know what you mean, my black 2007 Mustang is my DD. I used to have her so clean in college! Now I don't even have a garage...It's killin' me to see it dirty.

But yeah, a good clay barring will make a world of difference.

Got them from ModBargains.com
Pretty much what I want.. The only thing that worries me is how dark the taillights might be during the daytime, I really dislike dark tinted taillights, maybe it'll change my opinion when I see them in person.
