Default Annoying scratches

I just bought my car last week on Wednesday and I already have one scratch on my passenger side rear door and one on my trunk. Do you think they will fix this for free during my 30 day service if I ask? What should I do? The one on the passenger side is light but long...

Smokey Granite Mica

You can barely see them but the one on the trunk you can see at a straight 180 degree angle!

Last time I had them do that to my BSP they had to replace my entire bumper because then burned through paint.

Try using some clearcoat polishing compound if the scratches arent too deep.
