Leaving my garage today I clipped one of the columns with my right side....
I got out and here is what happened ... really pissed off at myself for not paying attention when leaving....
Does anyone know what I can do about this? I'm sure you can't see how bad it is in the pictures....some of it seems like scuffing of the clear coat...the scratches on the edges seem pretty deep....

Very deep scratches. You need to paint it. ![Frown](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/sad.gif)
Don't be too mad about your mistake. I know it sux, but shit just happens and you can have it painted and forgotten.
