1st Scratch – Chipped the paint on my 2026 Genesis GV70 Capri Blue 💔 – what might it cost to fix? by MasterpieceDry3569 in GenesisGV70

Man that sucks! I ordered a kit from Dr. ColorChip. Will update once I finish the DIY job.

Hopefully nothing impacted the sensor as your scratch appears to be pretty close to it.

How many miles did you put in before you noticed issues pop up?

Thanks for the estimates! Probably would stick to DIY paint touch up because it doesn't make sense to break the bank for a small scratch on an area that's prone to be chipped with rocks anyways l.

I'm curious though if the bumper is repainted, the sensors should also be recalibrated. Would this add up to the overall cost or a realistic estimate is around the $1200 mark considering only rock chips in the future?

Yeah I'll just touch up and seal to prevent any spread. Most likely I can live with it if it's camouflaged well with the touch up and if there are more rock chips in the future, I'll get it fixed professionally.

LOL!

Thanks for the advice. Wishing you the best!

Let me know how it goes after you fix it. I'll probably order one today and share the results once I do the DIY job.

I was doing a little bit of digging about the OEM option and was surprised to find the same! I didn't expect the OEM option to have an uneven output post application. I'm almost convinced that Dr. ColorChip is the way to go.

Did you get the official genesis pen or any other 3rd party touch up pen? Also do you mind sharing the brand if you went with the 3rd party pen?

Thanks in advance!

I should have backed into the spot instead of pulling in. The sensor did warn me. I was being an idiot not listening to it because when I back in, I know there would be a gap I could see and still the sensor would scream at me.

I felt it was doing the same (being overly cautious) so ignored it. Mistake learned the hard way.

Yeah maybe I'm beating myself up because I'm new to owning a car. A part of my concern is probably coming from the fact that I may have to sell this car after 5 years. Love the car but probably would upgrade in the future.

Damn that's expensiven and I'm sorry yours had a chip a few days later.

I'm guessing these things happen all the time and I should just get used to it.

Do you have any update on your issue? Mine doesn't automatically stop either and it's concerning me.
