Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I got bumped and the rear cover flexed and cracked the paint. I have an air compressor and I was thinking of trying to tackle painting it myself. Anyone have experience with this? Artic Silver. Where's the best matching paint? Add flex agent? Mix in clear coat in paint or do a separate clear coat layer? removed the bumper today. No damage behind it.
Arctic Silver on bumpers is extremely difficult to match to the adjacent panels. If you are picky about color match, I would leave this up to someone who has proven experience.
