Me: "What ass did this to my car?!"
Me: "It was me."
Me: "Dammit revil. This is why we can't have nice things."
Me: "Happy birthday?"

Why do you think I'm looking for a front lip, now?

Happy birthday.

If you want to cover that up, this website sells OEM matched aerosol touch up paint - you can cover/blend just that portion of the bumper if you are DIY inclined. Mobile bumper repair would charge about 300 to repair that area.

Well, now revil ...... both of you just settle down!

Hey, it's plastic, so it won't rust.

A little rubbing compound will smooth it out.

A bit of touch up paint will blend it in.

After that, ain't nobody gonna notice it except you two.

Can either of you see it while driving .. ??

So, what's the problem?

Did your Dad help buy it for you or support you? If so, stop complaining.

That actually makes me feel a little better.

Alright negative Nancy. I'm in my 30's and my dad's dead, but thanks for reminding me.

At least it's mostly under the car.

Looks like a great excuse for one of those nice poly urethane lips they have out now. They cost less than what it would cost for a shop to fix that. Some guys around here have black ones that have the little winglets on the ends right where your scratch is and they paid a little over $100 for them. They look good and they will not shatter if you bump them.

I swear your first post stated that you had an argument with your Dad, who scraped your bumper... My apologies.
