I need help, just bump into a wall while parking.
So I was backing into a parking space and I was an idiot for not noticing that there was a pole, so I scratched my rear bumper ughh!
Been looking for a touch up paint online and I just couldnt find it. My car is 2015 Blue Velvet Metallic. I want to fix it on my own, bringing it into a shop will cost me more. |

Sorry about your Camaro, good luck with the fix!
Makes me glad I got the back-up sensors.

Take your VIN to the dealership, they need it to order the correct color code for touch up paint.

Ouch -- is the pole you hit white? Is a lot of that paint transfer from the pole?

That's not going to come out looking all that good trying to just use touch-up paint on it. Sadly that rear bumper is going to need to be re-sprayed.

So I got the sand paper, the spray paint and the high gloss clear coat. Is that all I need to at least bring it back to closely original paint?

This is my finish product, all my mistake was not using a primer to level the surface of the paint. But still I'm happy and learned something new
Thanks to www.automotivetouchup.com/ this is where I got my spray paint at, but you can still buy it at your dealership. |
