Theloniousmonk Neutral Newbie May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 I got these heavy scratches on my headlamp and bumper from an incident when a driver reversed into me. Heng got no dent... I'm trying to get that fella to replace them if possible. But is it possible to remove the scratches? The bumper is unpainted.

Mzrmazda3 6th Gear May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 Bro, did you get that driver to write down in 'Black & White' that it is his fault for reversing onto your ride? If heavy scratches then most likely have to replace the headlamp casing cum re-spraying the bumper cos cannot view the condition of it as you have no pics to show us Maybe, you wanna take a pic and show us so that Bros & Sis could give you some suggestion Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kxbc Turbocharged May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 My back bumper also scratched. Paint gone. One joint cracked. Hit and run. I suay. Now I wait for some more suay person to bump into my bumper and I make him pay for my new bumper. But of course cross fingers I never get into accident lah.

Theloniousmonk Neutral Newbie May 8, 2007 Author Share May 8, 2007 Guess you're right. The way I see it now I don't think there's way to remove the scratches. Ya I'm going to do a settlement with the guy to get him to replace the headlamp and respray the bumper. See how ah? I just hate to do these settlements. A dam hassle. Like they say, you don't knock ppl, ppl also knock you. Aiya... You guys drive safe man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kxbc Turbocharged May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 Can only grin and bear with it if no money to do repair. What to do? Mrs says it's a eyesore, but I think see it a little longer and will get used to it already lah. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theloniousmonk Neutral Newbie May 8, 2007 Author Share May 8, 2007 That's why cars are like money bins with no bottom. My Mrs. will say 'Aiya, a few scratches only. Car still can move right?' Anyway when it comes to car accident, I have already seen past the red layer! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chromas 1st Gear May 8, 2007 Share May 8, 2007 Just do what I do, get some same color decal from those sticker shop, buy a metre or so to keep. Whenever there's a light scratch, use the decal to cover it up if polishing doesn't do the trick. Cheap and good solution. For headlamps, get those decal shops to tint it lightly, thus protecting the headlamp too. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
