if you have a wife / girlfriend who drives it, it could have been her and she may say 'normal wear and tear' :p

my wife's CU2 now has gutter rash on both front wheels and scrape marks under the front bumper right to left... all occurred under 'normal wear and tear' according to her.. :zip:

Could be from a number of things. Did you try polishing it? It might not get it right out but may make it a bit better.

Almost the same spot I did to my cu2. I got it repaint at $300 cash. It's part of wear and tear when going into narrow CBD underground car park. :)

I think that bits are plastic, so if you want to stinge, just buy some matching paint and paint or spray them yourself.

Can't even see any damage?

After about a month of owning my EP3 I noticed some scuff marks on the passenger side of my rear lip. No idea how it got there and thought I was just careless when examining the car before buying. Then I realised I was scraping on my driveway. One side is steeper than the other... now I just park on the other side of the garage. I hate living on a hill. :(
