Wash it with dawn soap, prep it with rubbing alcohol, sand down with 180-320 grit, spray primer, sand primer with wet 600 grit, spray base coat, spray clear coat, wetsand with 1500...then compound it. Don't wax it for 30 days. Edit to add:This still will not look factory. It won't match the surrounding area exactly but you won't see the black scratches.
It wouldn't hurt to stop by the place that painted your wing to get a quote. By the time you buy supplies you could already be out 100 dollars.

Brian, man, we have to link up, I got a GSXR 600 about a week ago, I wanna have a piece of my fairing touched up with a nice clear coat. I've only had it a week and I havent had a lot of time to asess it and wee what it really needs, but Im pretty sure it doesnt need any body work done.
