Default My Babby's Been hurt

So this morning I pull out of the garage and get out, close it and notice that my rear bumper now has a mark on it. Someone hit me on my passenger side corner. It looks as if someone rubbed my bumper really hard and went down to the black (under the paint). It's about 5-6 inches tall and maybe 3 inches wide. This must have happened within the last 72 hours. Due to me washing it then. The only thing I can think of, someone maybe pulled out of a parking spot next to me and cranked the wheel rubbing their tire on my bumper cause it's lower than most car bumpers...
Since I obviously don't know who did this does anyone know how much something like this might cost to get repainted? Can they do a section of my bumper and blend it with the rest or do they have to repaint the entire thing? Color is silverstone- I've hear this could be more $ to have repainted. This stinks...

sorry to read but I would say that it would cost you about $500.00 at most. they can blend the paint - just ask Thomas as he just had his rear bumper fixed when he had a little incident

Are you sure it went through the paint and its not just a rubber mark. When you come up next week, If its just a mark we can buff it out.

Hit and run sucks!

Like Scott said, if it is only rubber mark, you can buff it out.

I'll have to look closer at it after work. I didn't really look at it too closely due to being in a rush to work, but I think the paint is scraped off.
