Unhappy something bad happened...



My car is no longer perfect...

Well, I backed up to a pole...I feel like such a retard and angry at myself!
What should I do with this? I don't beleive this is worth it to repaint the bumper, because that would cost a lot of money! I have been reading about touch-up pen and similar products on the forum. So I am going to either order one from e-Bay or see what my local dealers have to offer. From what I read, I should get the pen that has two ends, one end being the paint and the other end is the clear coat. I am no paint specialist, but these look pretty deep to me.
Will I have any problems with it in the future, such as rusting and other bad stuff?

Any comments and suggestions would be wonderful!

Thanks!

No rust if it is only on the bumper.

Yeah, I have damage to that area of my car too. But mine is at the corner
of the left side.

Somebody f*** did a hit and run to my car when I had it parked in my school's
garage My car was only 1 week old at the time..

I used a heat gun to pop it back out but since the clear coat + paint was
damaged went to a body shop and they were asking $400 to fix it.

Didn't feel like it was worth all that money to fix the bumper. Since then I just
try to ignore the scratches and have been able to just live with it.

You could just put a bumper sticker on your car

Probably should punish yourself for being a fucktard and pay to get it fixed right.

a paint pen isn't going to help that.
