Hello all, is this fixable or will I have to buy new ones? They seem very small but annoying to me as I did it with a grill on a cooler walking back from the beach so its not a battle scare from anything cool :(

I've seen on here mentions of buffering it but will turn the flare shinny. What about the other part that is scratched next the flare connected to the bumper?

Really trying to avoid buying 2 new parts if possible. Also can you tell is these flares were already buffed? I bought the truck used not from Ford and I have also took it to a paint repair guy for other stuff so not sure if they buffed them.

Thanks for any help.

yeah, doesn’t look gouged. try hitting with rubbing compound and see if you can make progress.

Wear it like a badge of honor. My gen 3 has a deep one on the pass rear. I “de-burred” it and is noticeable at certain angles. Tight squeeze on a rock climb.
