OUCH!!!

At least you tried and did removed the scratch!!!

Something similar had happened to a friend of mine's 335i; instead of box, his gf tried to slide down his hood with freaking Versace jeans... Instead of getting the scratch remove or have the hood repaint, he decided to totaled it and order another one... Oh yeah, he did dump that Asian Blonde for good!!!
