Hello all, I brushed a curb in the parking lot and have a few rough marks just below the door on the driver side of the car. My SA said it wld cost me arnd 300$, but he advised me to do it on my own!!!! and save the monies....
Shall I get the paint job done by the dealer or shall I do it myself? I ve never done it before. suggestions are welcome and wld be appreciated.
Its an Alpine White E90 '06. I am attaching pics.

I'm the same situation but my curb is in the front pass side corner bumper, right below the fog lights. I order a spray touch-up paint kit (paint,clear, primer, & thinner, & grit paper). If the DIY don't go well, I'll just order some oem front splitters to add on. The website I order from does give you some tips on how to do it. http://www.automotivetouchup.com/
