RX-8's do not go well with concrete walls
Alright everyone, here's how it happened! I just picked up my 2005 velocity red '8 a week ago and have been driving it like it should be. But today i was in a underground parking lot with some friends in my car, when i started to back out of my spot and became distracted when "*BANG*" Thats right, i back up right into the concrete wall. There is no real damage except for my ego. I restored the paint on the bumper to a showroom finish (thank god) but it is the black plastic underneath the licence plate that's a tiny bit scratched. Any tips on how to blend these scrapes in? Please let me know

heh. When I bought my brand new red dodge dakota quad cab truck, I underestimated the turning radius ... well, rather I underestimated how far the rear "Sweeps" as you turn, and so when I made a sharp left turn while close to a parking lot wall to my right - my back end made a horrid screeching sound as it scrapped against the wall.
no idea how to get it fixed, i never got mine fixed, i traded it in for something else.
