Dammnnn My Poor baby, tradegy occured

Was going in reverse in an alley and there was small dumpster that I backed into, basically looks like i need to repaint it, or replace the bumper cover, Anybody Know how much a scratch like that would cost to repair.

Are there just light scratches or is the paint completely off the bumper?

It's got to be cheaper to remove and repaint than to replace.

lol

And I spent $250 at a local bodyshop to get a big chip (size of a baseball) on the hood of my '55 Chevy filled and painted. They blended the paint and re-cleared the hood. It was a green-metallic paint that was about 15 years old, so it wasn't exactly an easy job. It turned out to be a flawless repair! If they could do that for $250, I'd expect you could get yours repaired for about that as well, depending on the amount of damage.

Shouldn't be too bad on a black car, but you could get the whole bumper cap painted if you wanted. As was mentioned, this could be a good time for an aftermarket bumper cap. You might consider filing a claim to help offset the cost of a new bumper and paint.
