Or do you think this will buff out?

OK, what happened? Did you check for any other damages (suspension, etc.)

Everything else is fine.

Long story short - I hit the trailer hitch of an Escalade.
I was doing about 10 km/h.

Zaino. It's a miracle cure.

There have been some "upgrades" around Toronto recently involving drivers replacing their hoods. Not enough clearance for the add-ons.

Maybe the shops still have these.

That's what I'm hoping.
There should be a bunch of used hoods (& bumpers) around.

Glad you posted this. I am now scratching Escalades off my mod list as I was also thinking about using one as a hood ornament but I see the results are less than satisfactory.

That sucks! Sorry to see that your car got wrecked. Best of luck hunting down and hood and bumper.
