Yes, I am very stupid.
Yes, I drove into the curb without paying attention.
Yes, the carbon thing got damaged.

Does anyone know if I can take it away from the bumper?
Does anyone know how much costs the new one? OEM....

Yes, I am very stupid.

Would appreciate any kind of advice

even if it's scratched, it's the bottom, so just get the clear coat worked out.

you can probably get it buffed out. worst case, re clear coat it.

Not too bottom. Visible from the standing point. Otherwise I would leave it.

do they have some type of carbon fiber touch up products? it seems a shame to trash a perfectly good part.

A little clearcoat touch up would probably do wonders.

Point is, the white scratches are just in the clear coat. Get it buffed out. $50 in Brooklyn.

Worst case, sand it out and re clear coat it. $150-200 in Brooklyn.

Thanks, found a company that actually does that.
However, now I need to figure out, if the piece is removable or not.

Just for the record, the carbon fiber spoiler cover is not removable part, I don't know what kind of glue did guys in AMG use, but it is impossible to take it off unless you damage either the bumper, or the spoiler. So, I am taking off the entire bumper and sending it for a repair.
