I was making a U-turn on a two lane up on the north shore when I misjudged the turning radius. I ended up plowing my front right spoiler into a very stubburn dirt embankment. The scars are all along the very bottom of my spoiler. The scars go clear through clearcoat and show white powder substance. I already recieved my new OEM Front under Spoiler via UPS and will install this Saturday. As for the scars, I also ordered some paint from HandA and will apply before covering with new spoiler. Anyone have any helpful tips about the installation of the OEM front chin?

Some dealers offer small dent and chip repair, you may try them if you trust their work.

We have companies out here that specialize in just fixing dings.
They charge anywhere from $50 per ding, to some that do entire panels at bulk prices.

I don't know what you have available over there, but its worth looking into.

California drivers are notorious for dinging each other - it must be those OVER(frickin')SIZED trucks and expeditions all the soccer moms drive! Sorry, I got sidetracked there.
