New York	I can't believe I did this...was in a rush this morning and while I was backing down my driveway...I scraped the right front fender and side of front bumper on the pole. I now have several scrape marks around 18" long. I don't know if anyone has done this...but I wan't to fill in the scratches myself. Any suggestions on what I can do to fix this myself? I can't aford a body shop right now. Thanks in advance.

(Rubbing compound and/or a some Kit 'scratch out') If you have scratches into the primer or deeper, you'll need to get some touch up paint. You can get the nail polish type stuff from a dealer or try http://www.paintscratch.com. Scott 95 SE-2.5L ATX (Sold, but not forgotten...)
