Yea...Sooo today this happened....





It happened from this....


Went to a body shop. Asked for an estimate on repainting my rock chipped front bumper and also repainting after sanding my wing. Even went as far as getting an estimate to repaint the whole car. After the idiot body shop owner told me my chipped wing wasn't repairable. I decided I wasn't doing business there because it is easily repairable. Dumb ***. Pissed me off so much. If you are going to run a business..Please know WTF you are talking about if your going to have people pay you for a service.

So I go home. Get out some 2k grit wet sand paper and go to town for a minute on the chip. I sanded it out without going through the gel/clear to the fiber. Thank god. Wasn't terribly deep. Then I got out the rubbing compound and hit it with that. After that, I went with the good old car wax.

Here is a picture with the wax drying to a haze on the wing. Didn't get many pictures. Sorry.


And here we are all finished and polished out..



No more chip.

+1 for me.....Owned body shop
