Re: Scraped sideskirt - options?

Just a quick update guys, I went over the scrape with some compound and it did take a little bit of residual scrapes away from either edge, but the majority still remains.

Re: Scraped sideskirt - options?

Well, I took it to the dealership yesterday and upon inspecting the scrape, the estimator said that they "just need to touch it up" and that it would be free of charge. So they took my car back and about 15 minutes brought it back out. At first glance it looked ok, but upon getting it home I realized that they used the wrong color black for the touch up! So needless to say, I removed the touch up paint and went and ordered the correct color online. I'm really debating on whether I should just do it myself at this point.

Re: Scraped sideskirt - options?

I went ahead and tried to touch it up myself yesterday and it looks pretty good, just a little splotchy, which I'm sure can be smoothed out with some wet-sanding, I'm just kind of hesitant to do it. Any detailers local to the Philly / delco area willing to help put on the finishing touches?
