 First exterior scratch!



I've had my 530i for about 2 months (first-time BMW owner). I just got done driving it to the parents in Kansas from Austin. After arriving, I noticed two "scratches" on the driver's side door. These are more like nicks than scratches...very tiny, circular, but visible! I think they were caused by rock/gravel flying up from the highway.

Other than just "dealing with it", what advice do others have on fixing this type of problem. My baby was so pristine and now I must cringe each time I go to get in. Is this something the dealership can help me with (e.g., buff out), or should I go to a detail specialist?

hi there. i've had 4-5 scratches buffed out by my dealer. infact i had a large 6 inch scratch on the passenger side front door which had gone through the paint and the body shop manager said it was difficult to do any thing with it, but would try and buff it out. now this scratch is still visible but only to me, they did an excellent job. Oh, and all of these have cost me nothing, as i've always left these kind of problems for when i have services and then ask them re the scratches.
