This is why I can't stand most people
Bought my truck in July 2016 (ordered in May). Put lots of time and money into washing, waxing, vacuuming cleaning, doing oil changes and making it look just the way I want it. Because I know people are idiots I'm the guy who parks away from people and usually on and end parking spot so I can keep the other side of my truck as far away as possible from some dumbass getting to close. Well......you guessed it......some jackass just couldn't help himself. I noticed this morning someone hit my front passenger side fog light area. Two smaller dents and slight cracked paint (can't see the cracked paint in the pics). Oh and yeah, no note with insurance info, nothing....so I'm out however much that will cost to fix. I'm hoping I can't get the dents out with PDR. If so I'll figure out the paint cracking later.....I just washed and waxed 3 days ago and it was fine. I usually notice crap like that fairly quickly so I think it happened yesterday...

That blows, man. I'm OCD about parking my truck too, but at least it's not too noticeable. I'm sure you notice it though ha.
If it were me, I would try to put some touch-up paint on the cracks for ASAP, unless you plan to have the areas professionally repainted. The bumper is steel, so you want to make sure you protect any cracks (on front and back of bumper) from rust.

Here's a pic showing the cracked paint. It's in the dents under the fog. I don't think it's in the primer. I'll touch it up soon though.

Hey man, chock it up to dumbasses and look at it the way I would look at it. Get you the Lariat sport bumper now with the grey that goes through the center also! Would look killer on that truck. Throw in some morimoto fogs while yer at it and BAM. Badass truck. Gives you a justification to spend the money
