Thanks to a rude/incomptent parallel parker, by rear bumper has some almost-gouges in it--I think it ws the the really old guy in the Honda in Berkeley last week. The color plastic looks like its not a surface color treatment, and its pretty thick, so you could use something like a paint polish. I suggest asking a body shop how to fix it. i have a question....last night i backed up and slightly bumped into the car behind me causing some scuff marks on my bumper...i'm wondering whether they'll come off with those scratch removers i can get at my auto parts store or whether i can buff them out? Comments are greatly appreciated thanks.
