I would recommend repainting the whole bumper, & pay them a little extra to fix any rock chips that may be on the bumper. Probably about 500. Hopefully there's a shop around you that does high quality work. Good luck!

Could be an opportunity for a different style bumper.

Thanks everyone, @hetfield03, I currently have the ZL1 fascia on now.
Should I put anything over the scratches to prevent further paint chipping? Would the dealer or local shop be best bet? Thanks |

If you had the mail slot bumper you would have been fine, top GM engineers designed it to deflect garage doors.
