its going to get fixed next year but i got to do something NOW! I know its not a "chip" I already ordered the touch up paint from Nissan my question is do you guys think it will work?? i was planning to do bondo-wetsand-primer- wetsand- and here is the tricky part i was going to use an airbrush to apply the touch up paint will be adding lacquer thinner and then just follow the steps in the link.... what do you guys think again only going for temp solution...

here are a few more pics so you guys can point and laugh

 

are you sure youre not going to vent like me ?? or deep inside you are like....WTF !!!! LOL !!

BTW goodluck with the touch up !!

 

I dont think its possible for anyone else to vent like you

 

Thanks! Ha ha well yes n no,at first I was soooooooo pis$ed! And then I couldn't stop laughing I kept thinking what if this had happen to you, how you would have acted like! Ha ha

 

Idk about the bondo stuff. The touch up will make it like 50% better, but you will still kind of see it since its dug in the paint a little and not just a clear coat scratch

 

^well thats why I was thinking bout the bondo, because I know the touch up paint I use isn't going to end up as "thick" as the original paint is now.. So the bondo was going to fill in the gap

 

That sucks. I had that same sh.t happen to me with several cars I've owned including my current G sedan. GL.

 

Did someone key it?

 

LOL !!

Post some pics after your project is done. See I did you guys a favor and after thinking about me all was ok.. lol

 

No the BBQ grill attacked it... :/ long story! I was enjoying my newly fixed amp which I though was no good(has been like that for like 6months) but really just needed a new fuse the day after we had a BBQ and combination of new working toy and someone moving the grill, that happen! Sucks right?

 

Well do it's going to take bout a week to get the paint. Had to have it ordered went to 3 dealers and no one had it... More like 2 nissan and 1 infiniti, but same thing! Yeah I'll be sure to update once I get it going.. It's going to be bout the end of next week if not the start of the week after that

 

I was wondering why in the beginning of this thread you didn't mention that you were the one that was responsible for making this scratch? As a temp fix I'd begin by hitting his area with a high speed buffer and compound. That will get rid of a percentage of the scratch. Dealership touch up paint works alright but with a scratch like that I'd be using Dr. Colorchip....

That sucks! Hope you get it fixed soon. Post pix when you get it toughed up.

 

at the time i made the post i was still mad at myself for doing it. really i dont know just wasn't thinking right. As for the Dr.colorchip have you used it before? if so, how well does it work?

 

Hey we all make mistakes, I've made a few that were easy to fix....call me Lucky! lmao Dr. Colorchip does a far better job than the dealership touch up paint, and yes I've used it on my wife's Vette. I feel you'd do well to follow what I suggested or you could apply the touch up paint then have it color sanded and then buffed out. I have a company here in SoCal called DENT MAN, they take out dents/fix bumpers and scratches like you have all for less than a body shop would charge.
