Sifu KrisMas and g88,

Many thanks for your advice. I used ScratchX on the damages this morning and it became less obvious. I will try to touch up with some OEM touch-up paint ordered from ebay and see what the results are. If I still cannot live with it then the only option is to repair and respray.

ebay ? How much izzit ? For me i won't bother since end of the day the bumper will get stone chip anyway....technically what u did u for physcologically satisfaction only...else try ask paintshop, i think respray should cost u around RM230-350 or maybe they can re-spray that small area only with less than Rm50-100..

Alternatively you can try looking for it at Hyper market. There is some touch up OEM color paint sold in small bottles. Even have clear coat.

Well, actually since the deep scratches are at the bumper, which is basically plastic, the base color is also black, do not really need black permanent marker pen, hehe smile_tongue.gif
