Repaint/blend is probably the only way. Touch-up paint will look like doo-doo

gahhh!!!

...Stak: Ive been raging the whole day it looks worse in person than that picture gotta be honest...yes it looks worse

..Toby: It was street parking only so I paralleled but I left plenty of room on both end, yeah in mall parking lots --- I always park really really far--- I love NJ drivers

..I guess touch up paint wont do???...its such an eyesore when you look at the front of the car it pops out

I'm thinking that I can probably get $250 out of my oem bumper including my lip. Then it makes purchasing the sports bumper A LOT easier!

That's if I could sell it with the blemishes.

$250 is cheap but I dont think anyone would buy it you can try but I think ur better off selling the type lip by itself

Well, there are absolutely no dents, broken clips, or distortion. Just those minor scratches and missing paint on the lip. The problem is, if anyone wanted the lip I would have to sell it for $75 cause whoever buys it would repaint it, and they could get a new one unpainted for $100 on ebay. I thought maybe If someone had a PWP it might be appealing that the lip and bumper are already painted, and preinstalled. It's long shot... sighhh situation sucks.

Hey there's nothing special about my TSX, it's just a stock premium at the moment, hahaha.

I just had a question about your exhaust plans. Since CTE no longer makes the exhaust for our car, what is your next route? I see that you've purchased the same Magnaflow exhaust that I've had my eye on....just curious about piping...are you going custom?

Reason I ask is the CTE exhaust had a center exit and an offset inlet, but the Magnaflow muffler has a center/center setup for that model you picked up.
