Hey guys

Driving into the carport last night a ceramic pot jumped in the way, smashed but took a tiny little 5mm x 5mm chip of the front bumper.

It's got a bit of depth to it so would need small amount of filler, before a touch up of paint.

Anyone know how much this would cost to repair roughly? Or should I get over it and save my money.

I have a few stone chips and marks around the car being 18 years old, but just annoying me at the moment.

cheers

I say DIY then get over it.
If I was you I would clean it out then touch it up without going over the edges, let it dry for a few days and repeat until it's just about level. Unless it's super deep.

I've got a mobile guy coming around tomorrow to give me a quote. If it's half decent might consider it other wise like you say DIY and i'm sure i'll get over it.

I'm a bit better now, don't know how people feel that spend huge amount on new cars only to get chips, scratches and all that.
