Belt Sound and Scuffs

At idle the belts near the alternator make too much noise. When I rev the car it sounds like I hear another belt near the drivers side. I can't just hear the intake, engine, and exhaust, there is always this loud belt noise when I give it gas. What are my options?

The previous owner to my car must have backed up into a bush or something, because there are these obnoxious scuff marks on the back bumper. They are not scratches, just a scuff. Any solutions?

How much are people charging for a new paint job?

Belt noise- you mean they squeal? Maybe a bit of dressing will quiet it or maybe it's time to replace it. Did you inspect the belt?
