Minor scratch on bumper how can i fix it?
Hey guys.
So recently due to pot holes and bad streets in LA theres a minor scrape on the lower portion of my bumper. I was wondering if there is a efficient way to fix this cosmetic problem and possibly low cost. Eventually I'm going to purchase a M-tech bumper but until then i want to fix this.
Thanks Alot!

I would start off with washing it and then use rubbing compound to get rid of the dirt from the scrape. Most of that looks like residue. From there some wet sanding. Hopefully it's not too deep.

Damn that must have been one big pothole. Luckily you didn't mess up your wheel.
