... and put a definite crease on the edge (can't be popped out) and a scratch ...

Hi Santiago,

sorry to hear that (I bumped our Golf some day ago :'( ). Are you sure it can't be done by smart repair? How large is the damage (picture?)

regs (and sorry)

So you will show up with scratched car. :thumbsdown:

Yes, unfortunately. The car is now "old and scratched" It is in a place that can't be just fixed. I'll take it to the dealer and see what they tell me. Maybe one of you guys has a good idea??

Pictures attached.

Regards,
Santiago

PS I know you're kidding Marco.

From the picture it looks like the top section has a scratch only (which MAY be able to be removed by buffing), and the bottom diffuser section has the dent. The good thing is that the diffuser is a separate piece, so if the bumper does in fact just have a superficial scratch then they can buff it out and you would only have to buy a new diffuser and have it painted (instead of the whole bumper).

Santiago,

You could order a new diffuser painted by factory! Like Rodybmw said on the top section probably a polish work will fix it

I had to change my bumper for a scratch without a dent that was lesser than this one.
There is not much the dealer can do on the bumper.
Ordering a new allready painted bumper from the factory was my best option.

All,

Damn, I figured this would happen but my current workload has facilitated the need for cancellation of this trip. I contacted the hotels this afternoon so hopefully someone will be able to slide in my spot.

Maybe I can make the next one. If they bring my t-shirts tell them to PM me and I will send the money and give them the address for shipping.
