:( They got me in the parking lot. Please Help - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I live at a College Apartment Complex and I went outside today to find my car had been scratched while it was parked. Im OCD about my car already, but this sent me into depression for a couple hours. At first glance it looked worse, but when I came back and the took the pictures it looks like something can be done about it. Im not the most Car Savy guy, so I probably wouldnt trust my own hand unless the fixin was extremely easy.

Please help. It doesnt look deep. It does look hazy though. It runs from my right rear panel to the right part of the bumper.

Thanks for your help.

These pictures were taken by a camera phone, but I figured something is better than nothing.

Looks like it should polish out. Anyone with a porter cable 7424 and some pads and polish should handle that no problem. If your not one to do it yourself, take it to a local detailer.

So its not a big deal? It shouldnt be much of a problem?

It's hard to tell from the pics but from what I can see it looks like you can buff it out.

Better pics would help determine if it is an easy fix or not. There are probably a thousand detailers around you who could tell you for sure. Or, you could just drive up here and I'll fix it for lunch.
