Repairing bumber scratch

[davey g-force]

Same principal - they're both painted surfaces. Unless you're talking about unpainted, black plastic.

Spoke to his boss and they want $300-$350 so I will give it a miss.

You need to speak to Adam mate haha..that's how you'll get it done cheap.:yeah:

Give him another call and make sure you speak to adam and say that the guy with the blue falcon sent ya.

I first spoke to Adam and mentioned you then he passed me to his boss :-(

The paint on the plastic bumper is a different shade to the metal panels. So if the touchup matches the metal, it aint neccesarily going to match the plastic.

When I first bought the paint it was to touch up the front spoiler so it should be suitable for the rear bumper too; unless I was given the wrong paint. When I said that the touch up looks worse I meant to say that the paint is raised and not smooth.

Some kind soul has rammed a shopping trolley into my rear bumper and left some deep scratches. I've applied touch-up paint but I think it looks even worse now. What can I do (other than replacing the bumper)?

awww some people out there are just so ****ed aye... it happend to me. some arsehole (the person that lives next door to me) jumped my fence one night and ran a key down the side of my drivers door and pessenger door and stole my front custom number plate on my VE Clubby, all because i was playing loud music from my car at 11 o'clock the night before.. i touched it up with my red touch up paint that came with my car (only so people could not notice it when i drove my clubby) but yea it looked shithouse. the scratch was done that hard it gouged the metal the only way was to get both doors completely repainted. it cost about $1000.00 not including getting my clubby put on a truck and sent back down to perth from port hedland and me flying down to pick it up and then fuel driving it 1863kms home...!

Wow you have serious neighbour problems! Surely you could have claimed on insurance for that kind of cost?
