Will this buff out?

[BroncoDude]

Rub some dirt on it and get back out there. It’ll be fine.

Nope, it's totaled.

Agreed, you just need to start parting it out................

So went on a few day trip with my brother in the Black Hills. Found some great trails and forest roads and a couple cool disperse camping spots. Wondering if this will buff out? My brother is new to this style of travel and had him spot me. I should have given him some direction before having him do this about wheel placement and such. Not his fault but my own. I shook it off as it is part of the adventure. Got it it delivered April 28th and 6400 miles on it. First scratch and what a good one to start with. He has a ton of pics of trip but trying to share with me from Android to Apple he is having issues. He had a blast and want to go again. Great bonding time. FYI. He said it sounded like crushing a beer can

lol yeah i trail hop often its the littl boo boos that bug me too

Wonder what the PPF guys that sell it would say. Their sales pitch with the last car I bought if you get a dent about the size of your palm or smaller they fix it. This would qualify. I do have PPF on the front of the fenders so looks like it did save the paint

I agree. It's a too far gone. Put it down. And sell the parts

No one has talked about the Android to Apple photos and video problem you mention. I'll take a shot at it.
As you're aware, Apple intentionally makes sending media between the platforms difficult by severely restricting file size between iMessage and SMS/MMS.
You could send the files using email. You could also use a photo sharing site. But for me the easiest is for both of you to use a third party messaging app. I use Signal. But WhatsApp is also very popular.

Thanks for the info, we will have to look into it as neither one of us is very savvy with technology.

In Apple, you can make a shared album and it gives you a url, which you provide in a message. I know Android Photos (whatever it's called) has the same thing, because recently (last two weeks) someone shared pics and videos with a similar url. I think it's actually easier on Android to do this (Apple's process is a little esoteric the first time).

Seems more like crusher material to get recycled into a new Prius, I don't see any useable parts, unfortunately.

PDR attempt first.
IF that does not work you can take the fender off, apply a couple layers of masking tape to the INSIDE of that bent-in portion, start trying to work it back out some using rounded-end blocks of wood and gentle persuasion with hand pressure, then with dead blow hammers. No more Thor than needed, but all that is necessary.

Or take it off and take it to a body shop, see what they can do with it.
The biggest obstacle I see are the sharp crease angles in the lower portion.
But definitely fixable, hopefully with no actual paint damage on the show side.

Well shit…I can’t believe it, but there is an actual use for those things
