Fixed bumper cover scrape

[Buellwinkle]

Have you ever scraped your bumper on a concrete block they use in parking lots to stop you from going too far? It's designed for taller cars than mine because my bumper hits it way before the tires get close. It's been asked here before, how do you polish out those nasty scrapes? Truth is you can't, just takes paint. But in many cases you can't just go to Pep Boys and ask for a can of spray paint for a Mercedes, BMW, Ferrari... So I found a few places that sell color matched paint in a spray can and went at it, came out good. Here's the link to my site with all the steps and pictures along the way.

By looking at the wheels, it looks like the Sport version of the C. If so, how do you like it?

I think the sport version of the C class is a great looking car.

The car has been great, fun to drive, problem free, good gas mileage, comfortbale, handles and performs great, 4 years free maintenance, free full service car washes whenever I need them, can't complain.
