Thoughts?

Jesus Robert someone out there must have been born and exists solely to **** with your poor car, I really hope one day you will be able to catch the son of a bitch doing this to you and use that brick on him

Thing is this happened at my parent's house in the driveway.
I usually park a mile from everyone, or hug the curb whenever possible.
Looks easy? How so? Just repaint?

Yes, just wet sand the area make it nice and smooth anything that’s left over that can’t be fixed by wet sanding you might need to fill if it has any dents… after that blend with paint and clear then you should be good to go.….. Shouldn’t take that long at all!!

If you run your finger nail on the scratches and they catch it is not good . But if they don't you can buff it out . I had a similar situation and I got a REALLY good detailer and he was able to make them vanish
