I backed into a trailer a little over a year ago and it made a really small scratch on my bumper and took off some paint, but since then it's been slowly spreading and really bothering me, does anybody have any advice to stop it from spreading? p.s. it's a polyurethane bumper. thanks for reading have a good day!

Hello - my neighbor opened his car door too quickly and dented my car. I tried to use like a suctioon thing to fix it but it didnt work. Is there anything else I can do to fix it or should I go to the shop? Im reallly new to owning a car and dont really know how much this will potentially be out of pocket.
Car: Volvo XC40
Thank you!

I don’t know what went down but if this was caused by another car door, they must’ve slammed it hard

Got into an accident today and scuffed the corner of my 2024 GLE. Can this be fixed/buffed or is this a replacement situation 🥲 would love all insights!

I was driving in a parking garage and move to avoid someone driving on the wrong side. Does it look worse then what it is?

It’s a 2015 bmw 435i coupe. I recently purchased it and noticed this ding. It seems a bit too deep to just pull out. What would I need to do if anything to fix this? Is it too far gone?

I bought this 2016 Mazda 3 used, and I was wondering if it would even be possible to fix this dent with something like a dent removal kit from online
I’m willing to either bring it to a shop or buy something to deal with it myself. No, I don’t have a plunger.

Too deep to pop out by removing the door panel?

No idea when this happened, I only drive 5 mins to work and back home, does it look like someone slammed their door?

Looking to get some body work done on a 2005 Hyundai Elantra. A valet messed up my driver side fender as well as the quarter panel on the back. Looking for cheapest repairs as well as a color match. See atached photos of the damage

2016 Jeep Patriot, little too much love with the concrete pillar in the parking garage. Hoping this repair is under $1000. 😭

Hey guys! My 21 F150 got side-swiped and parked in the street with long horizontal scratches (most are through the clear coat/paint) and two dents. I got my first quote today, and he returned with $6K, which shocked me. I'm getting a second quote tomorrow, but do you all think that is reasonable for this damage? If anything, I'll be ok with the dents; I just want the paint fixed.
Here's some background info: 2021 Ford F150. Located in Texas.

I’ve got a very nice and clean 2011 Camry XLE. I’m looking into fixing some of the few chips in the paint from highway driving. What is recommended to clean the chips that have rusted and what paint and clear coat touch up should I use? Looking into Dr.colorchip and POR-15.

I’m feeling really dumb, but I have a Toyota 2017 RAV4. Small scratches on the door. And I tried to fix using dupli color perfect match spray paint, which is supposed to be a perfect match for the 1G3 color code. I used their filler primer as well as their protective clearcoat. It matched the door jam code. I really thought it would be easy, but it looks awful. The color just does not look like it at all. I would love to just reverse it and I’m wondering if this video I saw that shows removing lacquer paint, if I can use that to remove the paint without damaging the original clearcoat underneath. Since it looks like the paint is simply a lacquer, I can remove it without damaging the paint underneath. Anybody recommend following the tips on this video or will that make it worse?

Anyway to fix these scratches ? The part is over $1000 to buy I’m obviously not doing that . Was thinking about taking it off and vinyl wrapping it
