Today was a bad day for my car. My father in-law backed into me. I have three options.

1. Fix it to original
2. Rs front bumper and I replace and pay for grill and fog light covers ect
3. Don't fix it and put the money towards misc parts

It's just a small crease from the Reese hitch. Nothing major I think a heat gun might take most of it out.

Oh no.
Where's the crease at?

Right next to the bowtie on and just above the grill. Not hardly noticeable in the shade. But it stands out like a bastard in the sun. Thinking about just using the cash to buy a front spliter , rear defuser and some canards, time stack style!

I like the sound of this. haha

I'm sure you could do a temp fix via plastiderp or sticker in the meantime. XD

Still no update on the damage. But I have picked up some blaze yellow dip for my wheels for the winter!

I will tell you now that the Blaze colors will fade and they will fade fast!!! When I did my wheels Blaze orange it was like highlighter orange and super bright. Within a week or two it was a very dull washed out looking orange.

Fresh Blaze Color

Few Weeks Old Dip

It is even dingier now, just wanted you to have the heads up that I didn't. Maybe if you put a clear Dip over it it may hold the color longer.

Its funny you say that...a local tuner shop employee painted is mazda 3 blaze orange (ya the full car) and after 2 weeks it looks like its washed out.

They did come out with a series of colors similar to Blaze but with the UV protectant in it called Full Spectrum but they are not as bright.
