*&%$#*!! Garage door came down on my bumper

I'm ****ed. I didn't clear enough room for the garage door and one
of the metal hinges caught my bumper and put three grooves through it. I'm not sure if these can be buffered because it actually dug into the plastic. It looks like crap! Does anyone know of a way to
hide this without buying a new bumper or repainting. It’s not deep but the garage hinge did shave some plastic and left white marks.

My first freaking scratch on the Max and it's a nasty one.

Thanks,

boo

If it's not THAT bad, and you don't want to spend a lot of money fixing it up, just use touch-up paint and cover the scratches/marks.

I wouldn't use touch up paint

I'm not really sure what you could do, but i wouldn't use touch up paint, that stuff is trash. I used touch up paint on a scratch on my car and did everything i could to make it look like the rest of the paint, but it still doesn't look like the rest of the paint.

good luck tryin to fix it sorry i couldn't help u better
