Rep Power: 252 Touch up paint would make it look better. The repair will depend on how much and what kinda damage is caused. Its very possible that the only real repair would be a new bumper.

Rep Power: 252 You can buy a little touch up bottle at the dealership for 5 bucks or at www.handaaccessories.com Often times a local auto paint supply shop will be able to put some in a spray can for you. If you use the spray can you will need a can of clear coat as well, otherwise it wont shine the same.

Rep Power: 252 Ok, first off, hondacivic.com isnt even a website. Secondly, dont buy any paint for your car from home depot. You can use the brush on kind if you want. Make sure the area is incredibly clean and has no wax on it. You may want to use a clay bar to clean the area first and then rinse it off and dry COMPLETELY. If its wet or dirty the paint wont hold. You can get spray clearcoat at oriellys, autozone, and most pepboys and make sure its for auto paint. The actual paint though will need to be purchased from an AUTOMOTIVE paint store or a dealership.

Rep Power: 0 ouch that's really etched in there. touch up paint will make it look better, but it will never be the same. there's some places online that sell the paint you're looking for, just search your paint code and you're set. otherwise, soonercivic hit it on the dot here folks.
