I'd try rubbing compound (on a small part first) to see of that helps. That stuff is great for getting marks off of the paint.

Could just be paint from whatever scraped it. If it's not dented and not through the paint you can buff it. Find someone with a rotary machine polisher that knows how to use it and have them buff it with some #2 and then #3 Meguiars. Should do the trick. You can rub it by hand too just to see if it comes off. Wash the area before you start rubbing. I don't know if a clay bar would work on that but it might be worth a try if you have one.

I am in north jersey. Dent is very small so its not a big deal, ya I guess I'll go buy a GS27 to see if it'll help. At the end where the lights r, it seems that the paint is off. The rest might be ok after GS27, we'll see.

This car has been nothing but bad luck ever since I got it...
First got a nail in my tire within 1 month of having the car, it was at an angle where the tire had to be replaced..
2. got pulled over for 67 in a 55mph zone.. wtf was that. Got slapped with a obstruction of view ticket so it wasnt that bad.
3. got a ticket for 72 on the turnpike when everyone else around me was doing 80s.
4. someone scratched my car worst than this time.
5. Got my headlights stolen.
6. someone scratched my car again, minor this time
Then now someone scratched my car yet again...........

Thats 7 things in less than 2 yrs. None of which was my fault, well maybe the 72mph in 55 but come on...
