Model 3 Front Bumper Rock Damage

First post here..
I was driving on the highway the other day when I heard a loud thud. Turns out I hit a rock, damaged my front bumper. Fairly decent scratch and a bit of paint damage on the bumper plastic. I guess it seems minor but I get more annoyed everytime I look at it, especially since I got the car recently..any ideas on a fix?

Tried the Tesla paint kit, didn’t work btw.

Bumper cover repair and repaint probably your best bet. Amazing how well a good shop can repair bumper covers. My rear bumper cover repair/repaint without the sensor/bracket replacement mine required was around $1000 and it came out great.

Looks like you're looking at a repair and repaint. If you end up going that route I would look into getting clear bra on your front bumper to protect the new paint from knicks and dings like these.

Such a minor damage that I would try a local mobile bumper repair service. A good one would make it like new, and wouldn't be very expensive. If it's not a great job, then you can go to a body shop, or get a new Tesla pre-painted bumper, without losing out too much money from trying the mobile bumper repair.

If you want it done right and to look good it'll need to be sanded out and repainted. Very simple job for any decent body shop
