    A few weeks ago, I was at Wal-Mart and some jackass decided to side-swipe the front of my Tacoma. Of course, there was no note or witnesses or anything at all, except for the paint transfer and scratches. I was able to get all of the paint transfer buffed off, but there are still a ton of really deep scratches that go all the way into the bumper.

    To make a long story short, I got a paint and repair quote (via a employee hook-up) to repair and fix the scratches and to color match the chrome part of my grille. I was qouted $230 for everything.

    I think that's a pretty good deal. What do yaw think?

    Here's the damage left over from the jackass at Wal-Mart.
