scratches
been parking the a8 in the driveway instead of the garage (st00pId) and sure enough the kids ran into it with their trikes and scooters. nothing huge, but a couple of nasty scratches: one right in front, and one on the back left side.
did the usual try-to-rub-it-out thing but didn't help...they're too deep.
thoughts? take it to the stealer? i'm sure audi-assured does nothing in cases like this...

Paul got keyed, did an awesome job with a serious buffer, IIRC.
You aren't doing squat without at least a Porter-Cable orbital, and you may want to find a body shop guy who knows how to wield a high-speed buffer.

I'm about to go to a Auto Artist franchise outlet for...
...the key scratches on my green A8. I had a local paint shop look into buffing and touching up the scratches and they gave up quickly.
The quote to air brush and buff out the scratches from the guys at Auto Artist Inc. quoted my $325 to do several deep scratches and to re-paint my rear bumper cover.
Once it gets done, I'll post before and after shots.
