Small bumper ding repair

    Came back to my car earlier to find some damage to the front bumper, luckily most of it polished out but I'm left with this ding near the grill, I can probably do a reasonable job of spot repairing the paint but any tips or advice on the ding?


    I appreciate it's small but it's a new car and I'm a fussy git

    The only real fix is to have the bumper repaired and repainted

    My advice don't DIY it anyway

    I'd be inclined to leave it as any DIY fix is bound to make it worse.

    As above, needs a body shop to be flawless again.

    Yeah maybe so I'll see how much it bothers me over the next few weeks

    Definitely needs a body shop if you want it perfect as others have said. The body shop won’t necessarily paint the whole bumper, they’d likely keep it fairly localised and blend it. The big grill on the Audi will help a lot in this regard. It’d cost you a few hundred but sods law you’ll pick up a nasty stone chip a week later.

    Yeah it could as easy happen with a nasty stone chip, I think I'll leave it for now and if its still bothering me in a month I'll get it repaired
