Whats up guys. Just got myself a new 08 IP G35xS about a month ago. Love it!!!! But just scuffed the damn bumper today. Im pissed. What do you think I got a quote to have it painted. The body shop said it will never look right if he just blends the small section since its ivory pearl. He needs to paint the whole bumper. $400 bucks. My friends say its not that bad and not worth the $400 bucks. I would think the same if it was like a year old not one month. Any suggestions????

Leave it or fix it........ Or maybe someone has heard different about the blending process??? Or maybe just get some touch up paint????

 

Get it painted or find a lip that covers it.

 

Wouldn't touch a damn thing. Just think. You spend the $400 now to have a few minor scratches covered. The next day, not to jinx you), or shortly thereafter, you pull into a parking spot just a little too far, BAM! You hit the curb. Or, you pull through the drive through at your local town Burger King and scuff the tire on the curb. Hey, $hit can happen. Would save your money for now.

For minor damage like that it's just best to suck it up and live with it.... I hate looking at my car with little scratches here and there, but it's inevitable....

 

Me personaly, if its really noticable i would get it fixed...things like that drive me nuts just knowing its like that. I'm a bit **** when it comes to my G or any car i own for that matter.

 

Yea i think im just gonna use some touch up paint for now. It is a little stupid to waste 400 on it for just a little thing. Its not that noticeable but it still drives me crazy. Gonna buy the rear roof wing and paint that and install it to make me feel better. Haha.

 

i say use the touch-up like you said, and if you're still not satisfied, then get it repainted. i'm super **** about my car so i'd probably repaint it. it would bug me to no end.

 

well, when you do get the rear roof wing painted, make sure you tell the shop to give you some touch up paint while they have it made and use that to touch it up.

 

How about if you cover it with a Kenstyle lip:



Looks like it would cover up the blemish perfectly.

 

That would look nice.... But i got my hands on some touch up paint and did a pretty good job. Just gonna leave it for now. But that lip does look nice.

 

if u want a nice paint job go down to hempstead auto collision... they do all my show cars

 

where can i get touch up paint??? anyone?? thanks in advance

 

White-Out FTW!

 

great idea get the KenStyle front lip..
