Hit the d#@$ curb at work
 

So today I pulled into the same parking space that I do every other day at work not even thinking about the curb. Its never rubbed before so why should I. Then I hear a scrapping noise and feel a little bump. I stop to think for a second, then turn down the radio, and then back up. Sure enough I hear it again. Get out to look and find a small line of red paint on the curb, and a line of white on my front air dam. I think there was one high spot and I found it.

Do dealers fix this under warranty or is it just easier to buy some touch up paint?

Dealer's not going to fix that one. You're on your own there bud. Touch up paint!!!

I was in Phoenix last week watched a dude pull up in his Viper, and literally destroy the front air dam. It sits a little lower than our cars. It was, well............ destroyed. He had to rip it off, as it was dragging the ground after he backed up, not a nice site.
He didn't even go into the restaurant, just threw the mess into the shrubs, and left.
SH** happens.

I think I'd rather have done that than curb one of my lovely 18" fanblades...

Sucks dude.

I guess it was wishful thinking to get the dealer to fix it. Where did you guys get your touch up paint?

Use some touch up paint.
