Mobile paint guy??? Ventura County or Valley

Hey guys, just did this last night. Ugh

It just basically scrapped off the paint layers and not much actual bumper. Anyone know of someone that can come to house or office to fill this in? Or even a shop that would be reccomended.

Thanks
D

I know a shop, but it's in North Hollywood

Also, although I need to see ti in person, I doubt you will be able to just "fill it in"

You'll need to at least paint half the bumper, if not the whole bumper, to make it look like it never happened.

Honestly at this point I just don't want to see it anymore. I'm either going to try touch up paint. Or try to have it fixed. Doesn't need to be perfect.

You can try touch up paint, it's a small cost ($25 for a bottle?)

if it doesn't work to what you want, do a repaint.

Maybe it's deceiving. My buddy looked at it in person, thought it could be faded in pretty good... So well see.

Touch-up will only hide the black. You will definitely still be able to see the marks afterwards.
