Just got back to my car after parking it in the morning and it's got two fucking scuff marks on it where someone has obviously hit it 
Obviously it could have been worse but my car is spotless apart from that... is there any way to unscuff?

Not really tbh. Excuse to get some Post 97 or colour coded bumpers on there mate 
If they are really shallow scuffs, they can at least be hidden with back to black

It is post 97 so already has post 97 bumpers!
And nah not a fan of colour coded if they're pretty much standard otherwise!
Cheers, never thought of the back to black actually, guna give that a try now.

You can get the scuffs repaired, search on google for smart repairs or trim repairs. Would be a bit pointless though as you could probably get a bumper for peanuts.

Sorry didn't mean to sound offensive 
I want an FK grill but atm wheels are number 1 on the priority list. Look at my post pic FFS 
Just back to blacked the bumper, it's hidden them but if you look closely you can still see them  cheers mate duno why I didnt think of b2b!

You aren't going to get scuffs out of an unpainted bumper.

No offence taken - just meant I didnt realise they were already Post 97
Yeh I can see why wheels are higher priority 
I picked up a couple of scrapes on my old bumpers - used to be able to hide the shallow ones with back to black. Brought the car with a few deeper ones, and back to black made them stand out more!!

Fair enough.
Can't believe how people could just hit you like that and carry on
Ah well, not too bad I suppose, can't really notice it unless you are looking for it

u can get them repaired easily!
we do them all the time, u can buy teaxtured paint so there not really hard to do your self if you fill it and spray them but imo opinion i would leave it to a bodyshop!
if u have any pics i could give u a rough idea of prices!
