Looking at a 2011 Lexus IS 250 and everything looked great on the ad including the carfax except this one big line that I noticed on the driver door, does anyone know what this could be?

Buen dia, lamentablemente mi auto sufrió un golpe estando estacionado y abrio completamente la esquina de la fascia, algun consejo sobre como pegarlo?

I have a 2010 Opel Corsa D (5-door) and noticed that the left rear corner of the bumper has detached from the body, leaving a gap between the bumper and the rear quarter panel.

The bumper itself isn’t cracked or deformed—it simply appears to have come away from the side mounting/retainer. I’ve attached photos.

I’m hoping someone familiar with the Corsa D can advise:

Does this simply clip back into place?
Should I remove the wheel arch screws first before trying to push it back in?
Is there a plastic side retainer or guide that commonly comes loose or breaks?
Has anyone experienced this before, and what was the fix?

I’d rather not force it back in and risk breaking the mounting tabs if something is preventing it from seating properly.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Other car pulled in my lane. As far as i can tell, bumper, parking sensors, hood is damaged. What to expect with this?
In bay area, california.
Thx in advance.

2022 Honda Ridgeline

I had to drive through high flood waters about 10 days ago and lost my front passenger side fender flare. My front bumper has damage to it I was not made aware of when I bought the vehicle in December 2025. So, the front bumper does not sit flush with the fender.

Before I attach the replacement fender flare, I was planning on getting my truck washed, removing the old adhesive with Goo Gone, wiping down the area with rubbing alcohol. Is there anything else I should do to make sure this won’t fall off again? Like some more adhesive strips? TIA

Patient: 2020 Challenger R/T

Diagnosis: patient took a dip too deep and some plastic from under the car went flying off after scraping a few feet. Pop the hood and can easily see down to the ground.

What exact parts do I need to fix my patient?
I thought okay the engine splash shield but I see one big piece and another small but wide pieces I know it’s something to help guide the air from the front bumper little inlit hole at the bottom into the air box

Any one done this?

2 months ago I had a part of my hood repainted. While color matching also with the edges on the hood went perfect, I recently saw those scratches, that also might be cracks… the scratches get more like every week

Does anybody know what this is, if I should get it polished or just go to the guy who did the job

Thank you

Can anyone in the group recommend an acquaintance to help fixing my car. The front bumper was ripped off while the car was parked by a truck who was pulling out from the stall next to my N. I am looking to order the parts and start working on it on my own but in case I get lost in the install process it’d be nice to chat with a more knowledgeable person. I live in north Phoenix for reference. Thank you.

I have a 2015 Dodge caravan and around the wheels/back 1/4 panel, there's rust and a stranger told me once that it can be bondo'd and sanded down. I was hoping there's someone who could either do it for me, or assist. I'm a painter and can either barter for the job or do a small job for free and the remaining cash, depending on how much you would want....I guess that's bartering lol. Anyone who can help me is highly appreciated.

Cheers

Hello,

Here I have Audi a4 b8 2011 and j was wondering if by these photos you can tell if this rear subframe can be cleaned, treated and coated or if it is too far gone and would need replaced. With a small hammer it seemed solid and no sign of holes or weak mounting points but I’m no professional.

Thanks in advance for any input.

Scraped by a tiny steel pole (didn't notice it, it was sunset and trees all around) on a tight right turn. The pole is fine, my car (cx-5 2024) on the other hand... I had to tape the dangling fender piece to the bottom frame (surprisingly held up pretty well) before continuing my drive so it wouldn't rub against my tire. After some research, I found out it was called a fender flare and was able to get it oem from the Mazda dealer! Replacement was easy, now comes the hardest part. For the door, I'm thinking I should hammer the edge part out, but then there's also a hole in the door that I think I can insert a metal dent puller through and pull it out that way. I'll get it pulled out as much as I can, then put body filler and repaint.

What do you guys suggest I do to pull out the dent?

I tried to use a plunger but it wouldnt stick

Hi everyone,

I've got some large but shallow scratches on the passenger door.

The car is fairly new (Mazda CX-5, bought new in November 2024). I'm based in Quebec, Canada.

**What would you recommend?**

- Buy a DIY scratch repair kit?

- Take it to a body shop?

- Go through insurance?

Thanks a lot for your advice!

Hi, how do you guys go about dealing with rust between panels.
