Its just a scratch guv. Bit o T-cut (half a bottle) and it'd be gone in no
time.

Actually, does t-cut work on body-coloured, plastic bumpers, or only on
painted metal parts? I don't see why it shouldn't, but I don't know what
undercoats are used and how T-cut might affect them etc. Just a query as I
haven't tried it yet, but as the weather looks like it has turned, I might
just find a weekend afternoon to deal with the various stone chips and door
dings etc.

The damage on the bumper is just a scrape when I was rear-ended by a
neighbour (ooh err!) at the junction exiting our estate.
