    Not sure what happened here but I just noticed, there is a small indentation/gash on my rear right bumper cover.

    Anyone dealt with a damaged one yet? Looked at the rear bumper diagram and seems like replacement isn't a big deal.

    Just curious about getting it painted, dealer type visit? Find a body shop?

    I think the OP is referring to the V shaped incision below the mark you are pointing to.

    I'd assume it's cheaper to replace than repair if it's as deep as it looks.

    Yeah... you are looking at several hundreds of dollars to get that fixed. Probably not worth it.

    A small scratch at the bottom of the bumper on a truck? Should probably replace the entire bumper and a full repaint to make sure it matches :rofl:

    Be careful, you have a bunch of bone jumpers around. Especially if they don't agree with you or your grammar

    Plate bumper... you won't have to worry about the POS plastic shit bumper, then after install, which is easier than taking off all the plastic.. have a beer and thank me later, problem solved.
