Scratched front bumper 2005 Honda Accord Black

[hellojeffo]

Hello guys, I accidentally scratched my dad's 2005 Honda Accord front bumper today against a ridiculously high road kerb (or is it curb?). Well, I gotta admit, it is my fault, my driving is not up to standards.. whatever. The front of the car is too long, and my dad's sitting position is too low, that's why I didn't judge properly.

Anyway, I am here to ask if anyone knows of a product that can remove these scratches??? If I can't remove, can I at least do something to cover up the scratches (make them look black colour again, instead of the white scratches). For your info, the car is black, and the front bumper is made of plastic. Or are there any other DIY methods I can try?

try use polish...if the original paint wasnt removed because of the accident

 

[lewis26]

polish it
it might help if just minor scratch

if after polish still can see scratch marks, use touch up paints...

ouch dude... good luck covering the scratch mark...!

hellojeffo,

Don't blame yourself too much..accidents happens, that's exactly why they are called 'accidents'. Anyways, with scratches against plastic and your car colour being black there is not really one 'magic' product that will make the damages go away just like that. DIY methods could be risky as they might make the damage worse, and that's definitely not what you want. If you like, you could drop by Next Level Customz in Sunway for us to take a look. I can assess the damage and provide you with a few solutions that suits your budget, no obligations. We are at 49, Jalan PJS 11/9 next to Sunway College. You can contact me directly at 016-286 7136 as well. Hope this helps.

Thank you guys for all the helpful answers. I have tried some polishing, and it removed about 20% of the scratches, but the scratches were deep, so it is still very visible. Which leaves me with 2 choices, one, is to get a second hand bumper which my friend can deal me for very cheap, or else I will send it to a professional shop! Need to consider!!! Thanks!!!

shit..dont tell me ...when did this happen??...
i think better take it to professional since it is deep...

if it the touch up is too costly..then better get another bumper...
though hopeffully it wont..

Hello Nextlevel, If I am not mistaken, I have seen your booth at some kind of Car Show or at the Japan GT event. I am still considering at the moment. If I were to take a picture of the scratches, could you give me a quotation or estimate on the price??? Thanks.

Ehaab, I scratched this about a week ago, hehe, the bloody kerb (or curb) was too high hehe, that's how I scratched it. Don't worry though, no major damage dealt... just ugly scratches!
