Default Ugh! :(

Today I parked,

I parked at one of those angled parking spots in front of a kerb

The kerb was higher (not by much) than the bottom of the front bumper.

I now have a couple of scrapes there, one or two are through to the black plastic.
It's not the end of the world but I'm really cross with myself.

The big question is, do I
a) replace the bumper
b) Fill the little scratches and respray
c) buy an OEM chinspoiler from Hardtopguy
d) forget about it and polish it up as best I can and use touchup to cover the scratches.

I might post pictures IF I can get over the embarrassment.

Jesus I'm so cross with myself!

Sounds like a great excuse to get the chin spoiler!

I did the exact same thing the day I got mine. Haven't done anything about it yet.
That chin spoiler is tempting though.
