:rant:...need some advice

Ok yesterday i took my wifes car to work. I drive 48 miles one way. Her car is bran new and i'm trying to keep the miles off the TL since see drives 1/2 mile to work. anyways...she did'nt work yesterday, shes sick. So did'nt leave the apartment.

Today: i get home from work about 8am. Take a nap, get up to go get some food and as i'm walking towards my car is notice somthing, that looked like bird shit on my drivers side door....well nope thats not what it is...it looks as if someone pulled in/out of the parking spot next to me and rubbed their bumper up against my car, leaving a really nice paint mark!!!...anyways i'm fucking pissed!!!!! i just washed my car too! anyways any ideas how to get this stuff off w/o paying some jackass to do it for me, clay bar etc...here are some pics...sorry not the best!!

looks superficial. you can probably use some compound to take it off. or even quick buff should do the job.

1) Clay bar it.
2) Compound it.
3) Sand it then polish and buff.

Start with 1, go to 3 if needed. Good luck.

Funny I was at the bank on Saturady in the drive through, which is one lane. Well this guy comes up behind me in a jeep liberty and is beeping the horn and I'm like wtf? Well, I guess he thought there was 2 lanes and he wanted to go around me. He proceeds to go around me and nails the HUGE green dumpster on the side of him, he hit it so hard it slid about 7ft. I got out of my car right away and I was like wtf are you doing? I was like don't move that freakin POS cause if you back up and hit my car I will kill you! I guess I made so much of a scene the bank manager came out and asked the car in front of me to pull up so I could pull up so he could get his car unstuck.
But it's only women that are bad drivers right?

thats not a clay bar situation....that will require some polishing, maybe by machine....

do not attempt to sand it unless you know what the hell you are doing.....

i really wish people would stop with the clay bar for dents and scratches and paint transfer....its not for that....

success! i went out and bought some rubbing compound, polish and some wax...its all gone looks good as new!!

I cleaned the area very well before hand with some car wash& water, then used the rubbing compound to take the transfer off, polished and then waxed the area, and it looks great!
