sorry to hear about that, if its just transfer paint from the other car or a surface scratch you can use Quixx: Click on the video.

ConsumerReports.org - Scratch removers: Tips, Ratings, car paint, car scratch repair, auto scratch remover, and car wax

If its a deep one all the way to the base coat, then buy a touch up paint from here:

getBMWparts.com powered by Tischer BMW - Your #1 Source for all OEM BMW Parts/Accessories!

then use langka to soften the blob:

LANGKA Paint Chip and Scratch Repair

I have extra langka if you decide to go that route. let me know.:hello:

I WOULD! I would never leave a scene of accident. If I ever scratch someones car, I'd leave a note on the windshield. Let me just put it this way, I am a big believer of "Karma" ;)

Since its a long scratch and basically transfer color from the others car paint, I will personally use Quixx. For 25 bucks see how it ends. If you remove the other vehicle paint, may be you can live with that "scar". Make sure to apply some sort of sealant to avoid corrosion.

The other option is to fix and paint both doors and may be the entire side to avoid mismatches in the paint. The stealership will charge you a lot $1000 may be?. I will just live it it.

The wheel can be painted easily by you, but believe me there will be plenty of scratches to come. Just google "german car wheel paint" and see whats available.

You have an alpine white car just like mine. I already have the BMW touch up paint and langka. If you want me to give it a shot let me know. I will have to see it after quixx have remove the other car transfer, for areas that are showing the base "silver color" its a good way to soften the damage.

She should def try this. Where can one find "Quixx"?

I told her to leave the wheels alone because she'll get scratches anyway.
