They did a pretty good job if you ask me - can't even notice it! They should open up a professional touch-up shop.

In fact, if it were me I wouldn't let this talent go wasted! I'd post up some flyers ASAP outlining you're extremely impressed with the craftsmanship, and are interested in going in 50/50 with them on a business endeavor.

Maybe you should scope out some of the neighbors cars to see if they have white paint transfer on their bumpers. They had enough time to cover it up

either
1. You guys are full of sarcasm

or

2. you all need better computer screens.

Someone obviously hit him and tried to wipe off the paint transfer.

No I'm single I just bought the car 3 months ago.

The story :
I hand wash my car at the car wash,and after that I went to my apartment to relax for one hour
then I went to shell to get some gas at that time I saw it.
Whats driving me crazy why he or she tried to cover it up :(

this is the clearest picture I could take :

A blend done by a bad body shop yes. I had similar (but definitely worse) damage to my rear bumper when the garage door closed on it. Found a good body shop who blended just the damaged section and it looks perfect, you'd never know it happened.

It looks like white out?

Looks like interior trim paint from a house.

After seeing the better pic it looks like what you said. Someone def scraped your car. They maybe also had white car and that's why it looks like a bad touch up. Either way it sucks, gonna cost you lots of $$ to get it fixed.

Cant you claim hit and run? Your deductible should be less

Examine other white cars in your apartment parking lot, looks like they had some white touchup paint handy.
