Default Damage question

My Porsche dealer just showed me this. Must have run over something. Does anyone know if it's part I can easily order and replace? Or is it part of the bumper.

I wouldn’t replace it as you’d lose the VIN sticker on the bumper. There are mobile touch up companies that can do magic, I’d go that route first.

Hard to tell the extent of the damage, did dealer mess it up?
Can you post better pictures?

Looks like PPF that is in the mix there. Lily your choices are to pull and re-paint the bumper (not the end of the world if taken to a good shop) or just re-PPF over it since you probably can't see it walking around the car.

Lower bumper can be removed, repaired, repainted like new and reinstalled. Probably around 5k.

Cheap solution...take some Turtle Wax rubbing compound and run it over that "damage" with drill/driver and applicator.

Will make it look 90% better.

Forget about this "damage".
