    Hey guys I was wondering if there was any way we can take off scrstches off the front bumper? I tried asking the body shop and they said that thru couldn't buff the bumper much because it will melt the paint off? I tried waxing it couple of times but I didn't work. So does that mean I'm stuck with the scrstches? Thank you!

    About the only thing you can do is touch-up paint, which can be gotten from your dealer or even Amazon. Just use the code inside your door... That's all I can think of, but others will know more, though.

    How bad are the scratches? All the way down to the plastic?
