I feel for you man, whoever did it is a nasty piece of sh*t. Hope you get it fixed without much trouble or cost.

That is horrible. Never understood why people would do that. If you have a problem with someone, why take it out on their car? Karma is a B*tch!

Call your BMW dealer. I have had smart repairs done on some scratches and I had a big scrape on the bumper repaired by BMW (or BMWs bodywork people).

Only cost ?60.

Damn, thats bad luck.

I have a similar scratch on my right door but its at the bottom and my car is silver so it aint as visible. I dont intend spending on an entire repainting of the door.

Can someone suggest a good scratch removing compound? I believe there is one by a company called Formula1? I tired using another light rubbing compound but it didnt help much.

As i said, find a decent detailer in your area and they should remove 80% to 90% of the defects for you and will only cost you around 70 -80 quid.
