RE: My Stupidity = $$
lol well i was gonna have it painted and just a pay my $100 insurance deductible and call it vandalism so my rates wouldnt go up...but then after a couple years you would prob be able to tell that it got painted after the sun faded it out a little, i think i like my two tone idea though, i think it would look sharp

How bad is it? You have a pic? I would probably end up repainting the whole fender

That sucks, I would definetly get it painted up right or buy a new bumper. I bought my 07 GT Vapor brand new from the dealership a month ago (only 07 new I could find in B.C. worth the hunt though as I got a great deal) and when I gave it the first wash, I found a dent on the front bumper. Here is the funny/not so funny part. They agreed to fix it, they contracted a body shop to do the repair. I came to pick up the car, and when the body shop re parked it upon returning the car to the dealer, they drove the front bumper over the curb and scratched the crap out of the bottom of it. IDIOTS, now I have to take it back again to have them repaint it all over again. Whatever happened to Darwin theory where the stupid people are supposed to get weeded out.
Anyways, just sharing the pain of scratches on a brand new car.
grrr...
