Default Scratch in the paint solution?

Is there any DIY option for fixing this? Not really sure what happened I just noticed it. It's "Pale Adobe".

That's dented as well, Unless you're good with a body hammer, or a pdr guy, that's going to need body work too. Only DIY option I see here, is to touch it up

They will need to repair and paint the fender and blend the door. I bet it will be $400 - $500.

same here...tough luck buddy, hopefully it will be fairly inexpensive at the body shop. Happened in a parking lot somewhere i'd bet...park as far as you can from civilization and especially beater vehicles is my recommendation.

Yeah, at least that. Maybe more depending on your location. And different body shops estimate differently as well. One may say that's a 3 hour dent, another may say it's a 5 hour dent
