Gen 4 bumper scratches

I was super-precious about mine at the start, but after collecting a bunch of stone chips I've accepted that it's going to develop a patina while I own it. I don't think it's possible to keep it looking as-new if it's a daily driver. If it needs anything bigger than chip repair, I'm not even going to bother colour matching. Primer patches beckon in the future!

I think there's an unwritten rule that the newer the car the easier it attracts damage. I also have a Subaru XV which i had for about a week before it got a massive stone chip in the middle of the bonnet.

Groundworker, I hesitate to say it and I'm sure it's probably on back order but it looks from the picture that you might have lost one of the trim clips holding the inner wing splash guard. Gotta love a concourse show pony! :laugh:
