    I just put an 8 inch deep scrape on my brand new black tube step. I was trying to park my Taco and I scraped it against a pillar.

    Any suggestions on how to fix? Is there flat black touch up paint or spray paint out there that I can use?

    Yes remove the tube step and prep it and you are better off spraying the whole thing so it don't look wired. And do the other side so they match just sayin

    Hey count your blessings - its just the tube step. Those are much easier to replace/paint than if the scrape or dent were in a side panel.
