I've got some small scratches on my bumper which I managed to scrape on the gatepost reversing the car, what's the best way to cure it? They don't look T-Cuttable.
 
Best to start off with the least abraisive polish and work your way down to the most abraisive, ie, T-cut or Paint Renovator.

You can get some touch up paint from Halfords, just take a note of the paint code from the VIN plate. If you're not sure get one of the people there to help you out :)

Will have a look in Halfords. The scratches are actually really small but a couple of spots you can see primer so better safe than sorry.
 
Sometimes better going to your car manufacturer for the touch up paints.
I got a Peugeot on last saturday for £4.20. Proper OEM touch up paint (thicker than the Halfrauds ones).

Sound advice, they are a much better paint match and i've found better quality, another shock is they are sometimes cheaper!

Awesome! I need to get some touch up paint actually, my car has a load of stone chips and markings :(
 
I was shocked as well.

Considering that the same dealer tries to charge me £27 for a single windscreen wiper for my 307. (oh i did laugth)

Got 2 on ebay for £6.50 each Bosch.
