    IV
    Caused by trying to get into a new small unlit garage..
    Should this sort of damage be fixed promptly to avoid rust etc (apart from the shock of seeing it at all on a new car)

    This is on the rear right area above the wheel.small dent, foot long scrapes, showing white underpaint
    Also some on front right bumper.
    thanks

    Hard to tell without seeing a picture.

    If you're seeing "white underpaint" and not bare metal, I don't think you're going to have to worry about rust.

    The bumper is plastic so that's not going to rust either.
