Oh man, that's weird. I never would have guessed it was BMW_Fag but I was just thinking how this hustler guy has just been disagreeing with everyone and completely wrong and stupid (such as the things that were said in the Porsche thread).
equate, some of the scratches look pretty deep but some aren't too deep. I think you should take the following steps:
1.) Invest a few dollars in a bottle of GS-27 Scratch Remover. It should be able to take care of one or two of the scratches, but not all of them. You can get this from any local shop that sells auto supplies (I get it from my local KMart).
2.) Invest $20 in an auto sharp pen that matches your color. You can purchase it from

This will fix the bigger scratches; when I say "fix", I mean it will fill them in but the way the scratches are, I don't think it will come out compared to before but it is a great alternative to the $550. It can even serve as a temporary fix until you're willing to dish out the full $550 (or perhaps $1,500 - $2K for a whole new paint job).
3.) Get the license plates of the ricers and call up your local police station and explain what happened. Have the cops make sure they don't take anymore "cruises" down your street.
4.) If you keep your car outside, you may wanna invest in a good car cover.
