Paint repair . . . Recommendations?
Hey everyone:
First off, I want to say how much I've appreciated this site. I've owned my '03 TL since 9/02 and only learned of this site about a year ago. I've learned quite a bit.
And have learned from the many DIY's here. So I'm wondering if this should be a DIY.
I scraped my front passenger side fender and am seeking your expert advice as to how best to fix it.

I would like to utilize a spray on touch up from paintscratch.com or something similar. Would you recommend this? If so, what steps would you recommend (i.e. sanding. grit, spray. buff, etc.)?
I have a sprayer and compressor but I'm not confident enough in my skill that I would do such a great job with that, but maybe with an outline of the proper steps then I might be able to tackle it that way.
I have a couple of other photos of this spot as well if more detail is needed. Thanks in advance for any feedback or suggestions.
