ROFLMAO The only retard I know is the one to change timing under boost.

Steven91gt, as long as the black and white scuff marks are indeed from the other car you can carefully rub it out...the scratches. Try toothpaste first (not gel), seriously. On some surperfiscial marks, toothpaste will remove paint that was left from the other car. If this doesn't work it's because the scratches are deeper into the paint in which case you'll to have to resort to compound. You could try an off the shelf rubbing compound from an auto store, but I don't know how well it would work. I use "proffesional" grade compounds from 3M or Presta on a wool pad and a variable speed polisher. It's difficult to tell from the photos, but it does appear that you've exposed the urethane bumper. If you're looking for a quick fix, rub out what you can, clean it with rubbing alcohol and touch it up with some paint. It won't look perfect, but at least it won't be an eye sore.
Good luck and keep them grades up. Nothing beats a 4.0 AND a 5.0.

haha thanks man..where can i get that 3m stuff?

at first i was like..o well sh*t happens right?

but that mentality went away after i saw it there again..and again..and again

ok so like colgate..would that work? haha not the gel though.

i wish it was like photoshop where i can sample

and then cover it up [&o] haha

hey you can use this as an "excuse" to get you a stalker front end...haha but they do look good though. just go to a ford dealership and buy some touch up paint. they sell it at i think all dealerships(dont quote me on that) you just have to tell them your factory color name.

Stevens91gt

well bad news..i dont know the color name
the guy before me had painted it before my dad bought it

hmm not knowing the color makings things a lil tricky... but ya try that tooth paste trick, i have heard it works with the right situation. and rubbing compound is stupid cheap, at least for me, i think i paid like 3 bucks for some turtle brand compound.. isnt the greatest but it has helpped me a few times.

but ya just try buff out the scuffs and then take your time finding a paint color that matches real well and also take your time applying the touch up paint. if you do it right it should look pretty good. good luck!

Stevens91gt

..well i suck at painting
you know those pictures fingerpainted by kindergardeners?
well that's how i paint..haha

ya ill take my time though..so compound and thats it?

You might get lucky at any auto parts store or even Wal-Mart. But for the professional stuff you have to go to an auto paint supply store. 3M's Perfect-It or Presta Strata Ultra Cutting compounds work very well.

Yeah, try it straight out of the tube first. If it works, reduce it...add water to thin it out to bring back the gloss.

Take to a auto paint supply store, have them scan it and hope it's a factory color or one that is close that they can tint to match. You can also buy touch up paint in a small dispensable bottle or aerasol can of the same color.

Stevens91gt

hmm arite thanks guys for the help
ill get started on it tomorrow
im sick of that eye sore
so hopefully it goes well

happy thanksgiving all
