I let my mother drive my car the other day and she must have gotten too close to a curb while parking and scraped a good bit of my black paint on the front bumper off. I was just wondering what the best way to get the now clear looking plastic back to black. Thanks

If its actual paint, the best way is some touch up paint.

I have a 2002 s60 so i would probably compare it to the trim on the side of the car. I could probably just spray paint it with a black but i want to make sure it will match the rest of the car. When i get home i will take a picture of it.

I just realized what kind of car....I think its plastic molding so it depends how bad it is. I use Armor All or Son of a Gun to bring back the shine. If its too bad might have to replace it.
