    Ugh!! How deep is it? Ive been cleaning up a lot of scratches in my crappy paint by wet sanding with 3000 grit and then buffing and polishing.

    Not sure if that would help this though

    I'm no paint expert, but it appears to be deep. Especially at the top.

    I'm sorry that happened, Martin.

    Here's a great video from someone I admire. Maybe it could help, if you are willing to go the DIY route.

    One of my kids did it when getting a bike out of the garage. It's kind of a tight squeeze between my car and my wife's van.

    I knew it. Mine has a dent in the fender from my ex's bike falling on it. Took her almost two years to come clean and admit she did it.
