So I made the unfortunate mistake of letting a close female friend get behind the wheel of my car. and luckily its not too bad, but i have 3 scrapes along the corner of my bumper on the passenger side. I manged to use a polishing compound and red wax to conceal them a bit. But does anyone have any tips. These are paint scratches, not clear coat. The paint job on the car is about a year old. So I don;t know if i should just go back to the body shop that did it to see how much they would charge to paint the area.

Put some pics up and we can tell you. If it is the red paint, then it is the clear to as the clear is sprayed on top of the red.

I really don't understand the question. Just go to the body shop that painted and ask them to fix it if it is bad enough to bother you the way it is.

they are going to have to take the bumper off, do the minor repair, and respray the bumper. It will run 300-500 depending on the shop. By the look of your pics, it doesnt look like you have laser red, but if you do thats a 3 stage paint as well

no its not laser red.. Its actually a mercedes benz imperial red. when i got the car painted i saw a mercedes at the shop with the exact red I wanted haha, i have the paint code and everything for the shop
