K Brown Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Hi all. Unfortunately someone bumped into my car whilst I was stationary. There is now a tiny scuff on my rear bumper. See pictures attached. Do I claim on the insurance/ get it repaired or leave it? I have spoken to some garages and they have suggested replacing the whole bumper but I think that's a bit over thr top?? Thanks in advance!

Mr B Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 I would say absolute waste of money/material resources replace/paint that, any aftermarket paint on plastic is far inferior to factory coated durability by a long shot .. Your best bet on that is some top quality cutting paste to buff the scuff narks out best can and just move on with life. Light grey/silver is one of most forgiving colours for scuffs and generally can improve massively with a good finishing compound . Companies wanting to replace a bumper for that are just gouging easy money jobs not what best for customer or practicality/long term durability .
