Badly Scraped Front Lip
My first modification sadly was an unwanted one... I was pulling out of 7-11 late and I didnt pay attention as I went out and the lot was on an incline so I landed on the front lip a little and did similar damage to this. Since this isn't uncommon I was wondering how you guys went or would go about repairing this kind of damage. My main concern is that the paint is completely stripped and it could start to peel off even more. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

...I work at dealership, this type of **** happens all the time...
If you want to spend 500 bucks...take it to a bodyshop...
Otherwise...order new splashguard (the black plastic **** underneath)...
Ask the dealership who you bought it from when the "paint wizard" (our guys name) comes each week...He can spray your car in under 2 hours...1/3rd the cost of a bodyshop.

In my case, I spun in the rain going about 45 MPH, and then rode the brakes all the way to curb impact; actual speed at impact was likely below 20 MPH.
If I had hit at 45, I hate to think how much damage would have been done. (Not body damage, but wheel and suspension damage...)
