I dont think it dug into the paint. It looks like his paint and when.I touched it it was still smooth so hopefully after wash and wax it will come off. Now the side skirt thats ever so slightly budging thats another story

Wash, clay (forgot about that!) then wax. Don't need an orbital unless you're really into it.

Have you tried spitting on it and rubbing it?

Rookie mistake, always use some lube when rubbing one out

You could drop by a local body shop and just ask what they'd charge to fix the dent/buff it out for you. They definitely have experience on their side so they might do a better job. I've had a couple minor dings fixed myself for a pretty cheap price. Depends on the body shop I guess.

Put touch up paint on then put acrylic wax on that. Who'll be looking down there anyway.

Bulge? what bulge? Either way if it bothers you that much some body shops can heat it up and get it tighter without much effort. Or take your hairdryer outside and try it yourself!

Def. not from bottoming out on something, the mark is too high.

Don't think it'd be from someone running into you either, unless their car was really low.

It's almost like someone kicked it.
