    I discovered today that some troglodyte backed into my car and chipped up the edge of my rear bumper. I was cursing up a right blue cloud at the carwash when I discovered it. In the scheme of things, it's trivial, cosmetic, but the idea of someone damaging someone else's vehicle and ignoring the contact and any resulting damage is galling to me.

    So, here's the plan: sourced some 3rd party Toyota Classic Silver Metallic touch-up paint. Hit the chips with an initial thin coat. Will build up the layers over the next few days. Will fair with 1000+ sandpaper after paint sets.

    Still... pissedmeoff augh Thanks for reading. I feel better now.
