Key marks, what to do?

For me it doesn't look like they will buff out. looks to be past the clear. its kinda hard to tell from the pictures. And for me scratch is a glorified cleaner wax.When you have a scratch in the clear coat dirt and wax build up in the scratch making it more of an eyesore such as swirl marks or worse. As long as its in the clear it can be buffed out.

I've used this method in the past and have seen pretty good results, but you must have a steady hand and be quick about it.
Go to your local dealer or a car quest give them your paint code and they should be able to match it pretty close, depending on how old your car is but you shouldn't have a problem with fading. These cars are't that old. Things you will need:

The Paint
A few dry Q tips
A glass of water
And some thin cloth/ not like a rag but something smooth

Note: If attempted I would only try this on the door. The wing doesn't look as bad but its way too long.

Have everything readily assessable as you will have to move kinda quick..

Have a wet Q tip close by. Cut a small piece of cloth "long enough to wrap around the Q tip and hold with your fingers but not too long where it gets in your way.
Dab a small amount of paint on the wrapped Q tip " the Q tip will act as a pencil giving you more control, the cloth acts as a barrier, you don't want fuzz in your paint".

You want the paint to look like a drop of water on the Q tip.
Wipe the paint over the scratched area in an even motion applying even pressure "the paint will stick to the scratched area if there is no clear left it wont be slick".
There will be some access paint on the clear, this is where the wet Q tip comes into play "wrap this Q tip as well, remember no fuzz also you don't to wet it where the water will run".
After you apply the paint, Quickly wipe off the access with the wet Q tip. It should remove fairly easily as the clear coat is a slick surface.
You must do this quickly as you don't want the access paint to dry.

If done correctly someone who doesn't know its there probably won't notice it.
