Rock chip, bumper needs new paint?
I hope someone who knows about paint can answer my questions. My dad owned the C230 for almost 6 yr, 90% of the time being driven in the city. Not a single paint chip on the hood or bumper, OEM paint quality I guess. Then 2 years ago, the front got hit and run in a parking lot and I replaced it with AMG style fiberglass bumper, it was a bad idea as it didn't last for 6 months then starts chipping. Bodyshop blamed the quality of the fiberglass bumper, but a friend of mine is facing the same problem with his polyurethane bumper.
I need to do something about it, not sure what would be the best way to deal with it.
1) Bring the car to another bodyshop, what do I need to tell them?
2) 3M clear bra (I heard it will turn yellow after awhile)
3) Stick with OEM bumper? $$$
4) Vinyl wrap the whole car
