I got a new used BMW 2014 528I X Dr. and I accidentally scratch my roof I don’t know how I did it but I wanted to know what you guys think about painting it the same color or black out the roof?

Lookin’ good!! Don’t black out the roof!! How bad is the scratch? www.drcolorchip.com has a very effective system.

Thank you for your input. I really appreciate it. And thank you for saying my car looks nice. I took it to Maaco and they did a good job. They couldn’t get rid of the scratch completely but they lightened it up so you really can’t see it. But in order for the scratch to be removed The roof of the car would have to be painted. I don’t even know how the scratch happen I’m thinking some I threw a bag on my car when I was parked somewhere and just pulled it across the roof and put these four scratch lines on it. But I don’t know for sure, so I can’t say how it happened.

You might want to check out Dr. Color Chip. Their system has you “over paint” the scratches to fill them in then buff off the excess paint. I’ve used it and I was pretty happy with the results. Nothing like the touch up method where you try to paint the scratch and then end up with a raised place because the of touch up paint’s tendency to create blobs.

Post a couple of pics of the interior!! . I really like the wheels!! You don’t see those every day.
