Thanks for all the ideas guys. I will first try to buff it because i hate dealing with the insurance company to put a record on my car. I dont mind little imperfection as i dont take my car to a show. Worst come to worst, if its too noticeable after buff, i will consider the respray route. Since im not familiar with detailing product, im here asking which product to use. Now, with all been said, im an example of "hater" victim, and i swear i ONLY push my F on EMPTY highway, my F DONT reach 3K rpm in local. but as you're all can see....haters are still gonna hate. So please guys....we're all know there are haters out there. Dont create extra...sorry, im half drunk typing this

Very disappointing to see people with such hatred for their own things translate to inflicting harm on others' property. Probably envy that they can't afford something nice? Can't handle the fact that their crappy lives are going nowhere, so they just try to bring others down with them. It does appear that you will need a full respray.
As others have stated, check to see how far vandalism will go on your policy. Things like this shouldn't happen, but insurance should help soften the blow. Unfortunately, that alone won't ever have you forgetting what type of people still exist in this world. Sad but true. Best of luck with the paint!

Damn!
Sucks when you see and hear about things like this!
Try the fingernail test as someone mentioned above. Pretty sure from your photos those are too deep to correct with any compound or polish sadly.
I've had paint done on my F without needing a full respray. Lots of shops should be able to blend in fresh paint without doing the whole car.
Admittedly mine is SGM, so probably easier to do than your USB.
Hope you get it sorted though mate. Sad to see.

I'm no expert and the scratch was down to the metal. I asked him how he did it and he said he is able to heat the paint and clear enough to bring it back over the scratch. I don't know if that's true but that's what he said. His portfolio of cars is huge and the most expensive he ever wet sanded and polished was the Ferrari FXX.

No offense but if you don't know what products to use I don't think this is something you want to tackle yourself. You will just end up wasting your money. Take it to a professional and get their opinion to see if they can buff it out as they will have the tools needed to get the job done.

LOL, a lady??? Anyway, if my scratches were at the bumper, i would have order a painted bumper from Sewell, assuming if they're still selling it. Im guesstimate my bill will be within $2k for a respray???

Horrible, just horrible.
If you file a claim, a reminder to follow up with both your agent and the shop to ensure they don't contact Carfax. One ding on there will kill the values of our cars. I know for a fact that State Farm does not. You do NOT always require a police report.
