Take some pictures and post them. Chances are you will just need a little big of compound to remove them. Even by hand with something like Meguiars 105 you should be able to remove them.

If its loud, fast and runs on flammable liquid......count me in.

as long as you didnt scratch too deep, you can polish them out with polishing compound. then wax it and it will be good as new.
