Help - Managed to roll back my black MY05 into a metal railing today.

Hit the rear bumper right on the corner and a thumbnail size piece of paint has come off due to the plastic flexing. It is right on the radius between the top and back of the bumper and has left a tiny flat bit in the radius - if that makes sense !!

I dont really want to have the whole bumper painted yet as it has no other marks on it yet & if I did, you can guarentee next week someone in a car park would hit it.

I am tempted to buy some touch up and have a go myself.

Is the genuine subaru touch up a good colour match ?? What about the stuff thats mixed at Halfords ??

Or should I call in chips away or someone like that ??

id stay well clear of touch up paints.

Depending where you live mate i have a number of friends who own bodyshops and chips away franchise's. So if ur in the midlands let us know and i'll try and hook you up.

Littleknocks are quite far away so I think I will wait a while and see if I get anymore damage caused by considerate souls parking next to my car. I can then get them all done at once.


Opinions on Chips away seems to vary depending on which franchise does the work - anyone used either Leamington Spa or Coventry ??
