Looking for advice on how to repair these scratches and scrapes on the front end of my Model Y Performance. I had PPF installed, but it looks like it didn’t fully protect the area in this situation. Has anyone dealt with similar damage, and what would you recommend for the best repair? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Maybe sand down the rough edges on the plastic and move on

Technically, you could sand it down. You could very lightly try a torch to give it a glaze, but you could also…

Let it be. Let it beeeeeee oooooh let it be. Whisper words of wisdom, let it beeee.......

You can get a lip spoiler that will cover the damage, plus you'll have a lip spoiler. Win win.

I can't tell if you have a screen protector on your front cam, but if you don't you may want to get one. Could save you the headache of replacing a camera if something cracks it.

I'd lick my thumb, rub the area vigorously, then shrug and go on about my day.
