    A friend try this company out and work very well for him. www.automotivetouchup.com The day you turn in your lease ( if you do/ or keep it ) the person looking at your truck might not even notice you touch it up. Unless you get the biggest ahole looking at it.

    Then just wait for someone to sell their color matched bumper when they switch to a steel bumper

    Is it just a reflection, or my imagination, to me I see a crack in your fog light lens as well as the scratch painted area?

    Dont get it replaced, get it fixed only. The lease company may not see it, else they will ding you replacement cost for it. Or keep it as is and put a wanted post here for a new used one from someone who put in a plate bumper?

    Did that to my car two weeks after I drove it off the lot. Oops, I forgot how much cars suck compared to trucks. I'll just leave it the way it is, can hardly see the scrape, and since it's on the plastic and not what they pass off as sheet metal today it won't rust. I can also use this as an excuse to buy a plate bumper for my Tacoma. Why not?

    I have two places where I dinged my truck as well.

    I don’t want it to rust. Anything I should apply to it? Don’t care about the damage. Just don’t want rust. It’s an f’ing truck

    Looks better than stock. Stock does not have that deep shine that the rest of the truck has.

    Mask everything but the whole front bumper. Scuff it and spray it with truck bed liner. DONE!
    Looks cool in a black and industrial kind of way and only you will now there was ever any damage.

    BONUS.. Next scrape is SUPER EASY to fix!
