Kaya po maayos yan kung DIY type of person ka. You will have to heat up the affected area using a heat gun or hair dryer. From the inside of the bumper, use a pointed tool (not sharp) to gently and slowly push out the dented part back to its proper form while keeping the heat on the affected area. After that, wet sand the scuff marks with fine grit sandpaper. Finish off by applying plastic trim conditioner to even out the lighter shade of the sanded parts with the rest of the bumper.

Reverse sensor is the first accessory we install on all vehicles ... Even if the vehicle has a reverse camera ...

I also nicked my bumper of my Forester SH when it was new. For some reason, the backup camera initially gave me tunnel vision and I was just focused on what was on the screen instead of my usual way of checking everything around the back.

The thing is, I never had any scratch with those low-tech vehicles I have driven. Some of them, you needed to "pump" the brakes for it to work. Imagine how old is that kind of technology. Just when I started relying on those cameras and sensors, that is the time I "collected" all those dents and scratches.

Buti hindi tumama sa painted area. Try mo buhusan ng kumukulong tubig and then bend it back to shape.

mas mainam ba gamitin ang kumukulong tubig? or pwede rin ba hot air kung merong hair dryer?

I think mas mabilis in total time ang hot water. Pero pwede din naman ang hair dryer.

Only 2.0 Li, that seems a bit underpowered for the new forester that's larger. I'd like to see how it compares with the previous version when it comes to fuel economy.

From the youtube review vids I've seen, they say the responsiveness of the transmission is much better now with the new forester. It's the same CVT used in the 2018 Outback.

Sad to see the XT go the way of the dodo.

Will definitely hang on to ours now.

Most of the reviews are for the 2.5L NA model and not the 2.0L model slated for Southeast Asia. I guess not much difference in fuel economy even if they bring here the 2.5L model.

Besides, Filipinos are allergic to big displacement engines so I guess it is a marketing move for Motor Image to just offer the 2.0L model here.

Maybe in the latter part of the life of this new generation, Subaru might field a new XT model with the newer FA25 turbo engine which is used on the 3-row Ascent.

No way I am letting go of my FXT.
