Honda Accord Bumpers
I am amazed at how sensitive the bumpers are to damage. I have two
black dings in mine and have had no accidents so assume it is from something like a shopping cart. The color coordination may be cheap and look nice but it's sure not as good as what bumpers used to have. So the question is: How do you fix these things? |

My first order solution was to get a black Accord, dings hardly show at all. Beyond that, Honda sells topuchup paint in a bottle with a small brush for a fairly low price (remember something around $6US). That will cover the many nicks until it is bad enough for you want the whole cover repainted. I had a white Volvo previously with a black plastic bumper cover and had the same problem, went through lots of touchup paint in the 10 years I had it. Dave - 03 Black Accord |

Who decided that to get rid of the black rubber bumpers and use painted, integrated bumpers? I can understand for luxury cars, since it's a much sleeker look. But for your average economy car, I want my bumper to be able to take some bumps! |
