Ive got the same problem on both front wings? Im average at painting things off the car, like grills or mirrors etc.. But never attempted to get something done to blend it in like this

Don't!

Get a touchup black paint and buy yourself some mudflaps from skoda

The mudflaps will cover the damage by about 50% so wont look too bad plus it wont happen again

This pic gives an idea of how much damage it will cover

Just knock it back with some scotch pads and panel wipe it and spray away, its down bottom so wont be to noticable

But inevitably it will. Touching up lacquer or a solid colour is one thing. Priming, blending a metallic colour in, and relacquering one small patch is totally another. I recommend getting it done properly, or looking for some second hand wings.

Around £20 from skoda

Not really got any other photos but they do look better with front flaps anyway

As these wings are completely bolt on, you are better and cheaper off to just get 2 replacements from a scrappy or ebay salvage car

 

You can get wings from £20 these days then you don't need to paint them. I did this when some ba***d dented mine and easy to replace.
