Any advice on sorting these scratches out would be appreciated. The vehicle is a 13 reg XTR silver metallic. No great issue but they bug me. In the corner section of the kerbside rear bumper from a fence screw in my drive I managed to put in two scratches about 100mm long, through past the paint. With success I have done hair scratches before.
I have had several goes at them having googled and youtubed the subject, the scratches are still pretty obvious ;I do have the right paint. My dealer at a service quoted about £100 and I would have difficulty matching the paint as the original will have faded. As this will be the case if no other idea is forthcomimg I wondered about thinking outside the box and covering them up with something ,sticker or the like.
