So...my wife doesn't really drive my car, she knows how much I take care of it, and she's fine driving her Rav 4 Hybrid until her R2 arrives. Anyways, yesterday, her Rav 4 battery was dead, so I told her to take my car. She was going to see a friend for happy hour and brining our 3 month old.

Fast forward a couple hours when she gets home, and she comes and tells me she may have bumped the bumper.

I pull up the videos on the drive cam, and lets just say....Idk how the hell she did it, the cameras, the sensors, everything would make it near impossible what she did, but she blames the screaming baby lol.

Anyways, here is the damage.

I know some people wouldn't care, but I do. My R1S is pristine even after a year and a half. I have no idea how to fix this, without paying what I assume to be thousands to replace the bumper.

Any thoughts? Ideas? Make my wife feel worse? ;)

Not much to do. Clean it good with dish soap, to degrease, and treat with Cerakote Trimcoat or your preferred ceramic product. Will restore dark appearance, provide UV protection, and hide the scratch.

Or you can make her buy you another R1 with my referral code. ?
