so my car got swiped today

well after very difficult calculus 3 test, I decided to skip rest of classes and rest.
i didn't know until I got home, that some one swiped my front bumper!!!!

I went to acura dealership, I think it was Nalley, to get an estimate, but they told me to make appointment. wth, like it takes a genius to give estimation.


ANyway I am so pissed, and wanted to get some diy advice from YOU PROS AT ACURAZINE. or some reputable bodyshop in downtown ATL area.

pics coming soon

Leave it to the pros, I attempted to fix just a scratch, down to the metal, on an older car of mine, and it ended up looking like Couldn't imagine doing something like that on your own, unless you have done it b4.

def a repaint. I say it'll cost about 300-400 dollars for the repaint as they will have to do the entire bumper and try to get it to blend well. On the bright side, you'ss have a clean surface to wax with zero swirls and rockchips
