The manager was understanding about the rock chip. He said he will have his guy come out and paint/blend in minor scratches and blemishes.

Not so sure if I want him trying to blend on my front bumper though.

I think what I am going to do is take my car in on Tuesday to have the rear bumper damage appraised, and while I'm there, ask them about repairing the rock chip on the front. See what they say. I'd feel comfortable doing it at the body shop where my car will be worked on rather than by someone who is trying to work on 15 cars during the course of one day.

Seems best. It should be pretty hard for him to deny one of his techs took it for a joy ride, and he should be taking care of the bill.

My guess is they'll throw it in for the same price as a good will item.
