Rear Bumper

How easily does the rear bumper dent or the paint on the rear bumper scratch or chip/crack?

I had someone hit my rear bumper with a plastic milk carton by accident. I'm OCD!

are you talking about those gallon milk cartons??? Was it empty or full? What did they do? Throw it???

You should be fine. Do you see any cracks in it? If not, you are fine.

Seriously? You're worried about an empty plastic milk carton tapping your car? I'm pretty OCD about my car, but thats just psycho. And can't you just look at it to see if its scratched or damaged?

wouldn't you be able to answer your own question by looking at the damaged bumper, like, right now?

Unless you're asking a hypotentical question that what WOULD/COULD happen if you hit a plastic milk carton?

Car's dirty and I haven't had time to fully clean it yet. So it's hard to really see.

Empty milk jug? Aren't you more worried about what those huge bugs do to the front bumper?

See, I like seing posts like this cause that means people have other things to worry about than dealing with major problems with their E90s.
