Default i tried this in the appearance section with no luck...

hey guys, does anyone know (i know its hard with just a pic) how bad this looks? Ive gotten quotes anywhere from $125-$400. The bumper isnt damaged at all, its just paint damage





and as far as the tint goes, has anyone else seen this on the the back window? its almost as if the tint cant adhere properly to the window because of all of those small black bumps on the glass. thanks for looking!

the tint problem people fix bt usually painting over those dots with black paint then tinting over them. as far as the bodywork just take it to a reputable shop that does good work , cause 125 isnt gonna get you a very nicely painted bumper
