Backed into a car parrallel parking

[Bandit_TypeR]

Rookie move. I was jammed up by some guy outside of the space who wouldn't more forward. I was watching the front of my car and bumped into a truck behind me with a bush guard. Anyway, the bumper cover has a small flex in it on the left side about 1 inch and I chipped a small amount of paint on the top edge of the bumper cover. So dumb on my part. Would you try a heat gun and touch up paint or body shop? I found a shop that fixes plastic bumpers. Not sure if they do the paint touch up. https://mrbumperfortlauderdale.com/

Bad luck but happens to us all. I’ve scraped my rims twice in the 3 months I’ve had the car… I did get cover on sale so fixed once then put rim protectors on.

It looks like you can send them pics on their site so I’d do that and let them decide if they can do it well.

Would this be the correct touch up paint for a 2024 CTR in Championship White?

Bumper repair service said they can't fix it. I took it to a body shop. They said they need to remove the bumper cover, use a heat gun to fix the small "flex" in the bumper cover and repaint. Waiting for an estimate. I may try to hit with a heat gun myself. The damage is so small. The paint chip is small too. I bought touch up paint online. I used touch up on my BMW once and did it slow building it up and adding more slowly. It came out nearly perfect. Maybe the body shop quote won't be too crazy.

Touch up paint is a bust. To be honest, it doesn't even match perfectly. 08703-NHO-ES is the paint pen I got. Will have to get bumper cover resprayed. Next adventure...find a body shop in Miami that's not a clown show. That's gonna be hard.
