I have an 08 Coupe. I backed in too close to some bushes and it scratched the paint. Does anyone know how much it cost to repaint the rear bumper? Not sure they can be buffed out.

Take it to a reputive body shop in your area. Most scratches can be buffed out that apppear to be worse than they are. Have any pics?

I'm taking it in next week for something unrelated to the scratches but related to the bumper. I was rear-ended a few months ago. My car has already been repaired but the bumper isn't aligned properly so I am taking it back. I am going to ask about the scratches too but that didn't happen in the accident. I had a friend look at it (he's not a professional) and he said it looks like it went deeper than the clear coat and can't be completely buffed out. I really hope they can be buffed out and my friend is wrong. I don't have any pictures and it's dark out now so I can't take any tonight. I will take some tomorrow and post them.
