First DIY done!
 
:mantis:Tried out 3M's scratch removal kit... it's like magic! Took care of two nasties on the driver's side rear door, and some bad paint transfer on both bumpers. Will post pics later. Gonna work on some more scratches tomorrow, then it's time to flush the power steering.

just scratch X? man you need not know about Swirlmarks!! and polishing those and making your paint perfect!

Yeah, will work on swirlmarks in the spring :)
Waiting for Dr. Colorchip to come in so I can fix the bits of road rash, too.

I've used the Dr. ColorChip on a metallic black mercedes, similar to the sapphire black on my X. Make sure you get the wax off first, and take your time in bright light, but works well on road rash.

If Dr ColorChip fails me, I am just going to Plastidip the whole hood :P
