First post here so excuse me if I am not posting correctly. I have a 2018 Audi Q5 with a bunch of small issues I was looking to fix/address. Any and all thought are welcomed!!!
1. Bumper chipped - I live in a street parking area in a city and noticed someone hit gave me a live tape on my bumper. It is small (~3" x 5-6") but definitely dented and the paint is chipped. What is the most cost effective way to fix this? Bumper replacement? Sand/compound/paint? I just bought a "BumperArmor" pad so hopefully that will help stop it from happening again. 2. Cracked tail light - I have a cracked rear taillight from a separate incident on the street. Today I began to notice some condensation on the inside of the light and now want to fix this before it becomes a larger issue with electrical/bulbs. Is it possible to replace only the lens of the taillight or would I need to buy the entire assembly to replace it. Is it difficult to replace? Would you recommend replacing the entire assembly if water has already gotten in? 3. Leather discoloration (not pictured) - My drivers side seat has a small (1.5" circle) spot where the leather color has faded away. It is annoying because I see it every day. I have an Atlas Beige interior. Has anyone had success re-dying their seat? Any tips or product recommendations?
4. Paint Chip (not pictured) - My paint is chipped into the metal on my passenger side (<1cm across). I bought a 2 coat touch up kit, but before I tried to fix this myself I want to make sure if I should get a pro to do it. The metal of the door is slightly gouged and I wasn't sure if that would need a more expert touch to deal with the gouge. Thoughts?
Bumper dent/chip. Paint is flaking slightly Dent and you can see condensation in taillight
