So pissed...

So when I got my car back in November, 2 months later, I noticed there were 3 or 4 spots in my front bumper where my paint was peeling and the spot is gray. Pretty small, and you wouldn't notice it unless you're looking for it.

Now today, I was parking in a small plaza and the bottom of my M-Sport bumper got scraped by the stupid yellow parking block thing. Again, it's a tiny spot but the spot is chipped. Again, not something people would notice unless they're really looking for it..but it's been on the back of my mind the entire day.

Does this call for a MAC attack? I leave outta the country for a month next Sunday so should I just get it fixed once I get back? Would touch up paint fix my problems?

OCD is your issue as you know it's there. I have it with my car but I let it go when it comes to the bottom of the bumper where you can't see. Only thing is you know it's there and it is bothering you

+1....take it from me bro, don't worry about it. you WILL scrape it again, again and possibly again. not worth fixing it.

I'm the same way. Just use some touch up paint. Wet sand with 1300 grit sand paper. Then compound. And polish.

Someone talked me out of it..it's impossible to keep the front or rear bumpers immaculate unless you have a clear bra. Oh well.

In other news, Jeff@EuropeanAutoCreations took out my JB tune today since I have a service appointment on Monday, and my car feels like shit without the tune. I can't believe I've been driving the past 4250 miles without it.
