i know the feeling mate! "Don't f**k with another mans vehicle" - pulp fiction. Best cheap way will probably be to get yourself a pot of touch up paint and a very very fine paint brush.

Only thing you can really do it touch up pen, then sand it right down and blend with some cut.

Be very carefull unleashing the fury with sandpaper. It'll end up worse, as you can bet a touch up pen won't be as good as original paint finish etc.

after speaking with our old man he said get your paint then file a match stick to a spike, as sharp as you can then dip that into your paint then insert into the scratch, repeat till necessary coverage, let it dry then polish up etc. jobs a guddun!

as for touch up pens ive failed in the past with them, the point wasnt fine enough.

hoping to get some before and after pics up soon.
