The jagged edges worry me so I may get a second opinion just to be on the safe side. Not completely convinced with their assessment being my car hasn't run into any road debris or other, but at least I have it in writing and a little more peace of mind for now.

Not to soft, it's only 4.1 mil thick that includes the primer, paint, and clear. Jeeps have over 8 mil.

I zoomed in on my ipad. I was going to say its a scratch but wasn't 100% sure.
