Thanks bud! I'll try detailing it first and see how it looks... If I still cringe upon seeing it, I'll get a respray on afew panels... Or respray the entire car in a year or so... WHITE GS? wo0t

When it snows, I just brush the soft top layer off, avoiding the paint, I been very careful. It wouldnt of been the reason of the scratches, the scratches looked like someone used a thick screwdriver like object and gashed it on my rear quarter panel, afew times at that. F'ing terrible...
