Today i accidently scrapped the bottom lip of my front bumper when i drove into someone's driveaway a bit too fast.
Not really much damage but won't really notice it unless u bend ur knees and look at the front .
I know i can't fix the scrapped plastic but can i get some paint somewhere and paint out the white or black looking parts. I believe if i paint out the white parts, it won't look obvious.
If there's such paint, where should i get them from? My jazz is vivid blue.
One final question is, without replacing the bumper, how much would honda paint the scrapped bit for?
over $200 to do the job??

When you bought ya Jazz didnt it come with some touch up paint or something. My sister bought the new Civic Hatch and herz came with some touch up paint. I dunno how much Honda would charge you but my friend got all them black bits around his car painted for 250.

I had my jazz vtis side skirt repainted for $50 at a panel beater. Vivid blue also. The front lip shouldn't cost much more or less.
ur best option .. $ wise.. is to go honda and get touch up paint... as tonmasi said.. its about $16...

Like it was done from the factory mate, sweet as. I got my whole front bar resprayed and all the black bits done and fixed up and it costed me 250 as well. I know this guy that does really good, yet cheap smash repairs and all sorts of stuff.

I don't know how bad it is, but I just want to suggest that you will prob. scratch the front lip again in the life of the car. So if its not too visable, maybe you should just forget about it. or just get some touch up. :o
