Unfortunately My new CX-5 has been damaged by other people on a few occasions and I'm finally looking to have the damage repaired. I wanted to know if anyone could suggest any DIY methods I could attempt to fix these issues or a good body shop to have this work repaired at a reasonable price.

Subject 1. 1.5" deep scratch in the plastic trim

Subject 2. 5" scratch down to the metal on my rear bumper. I believe this was caused by a shopping cart at my local grocery store.

Your bumper is probably plastic. You could try Dr. Color Chip.

I've used it with decent results.

I was thinking about trying that out. I have a bunch of rock chips on the front of my vehicle as well. Do you have any pictures of the results of the dr. color chip?
