That sucks. If you really wanted, you could fill the scratches with some touch up paint, then clay it down to be level with the rest of the paint. Somebody in the wash and wax forums filled in some small rock chips with touch up paint and clayed it down. It's safer than wetsanding the paint to be level. Clay was first used to remove overspray, after all. Make sure your car is freshly washed with no wax around the area you'd be touching up and you should be fine. Good luck and post pictures when you're done!

You're pissed at your dad because he was too "lazy" to buy a lawn mower so you cussed him out? If you were my son I would have grabbed your skull and used it to put a huge dent on your hood. Take it out on the mower people not your dad. He's nice enough to let you live in HIS house where he has HIS lawn that HE PAYS to get it taken care of.

buy a lawnmower and mow it yourself. then hit up the wash/wax forum or a site like autopia and get some advice on how to deal with the scratch or maybe even find a local detailer to fill/buff/wetsand those scratches out.

Is there not a difference between cursing at ones self, and cussing out someone?
cussing out: "#### you, etc etc"
cussing in the moment: "why the hell are they still mowing our lawn, they scratched the sh*t out of my door" which is exactly what i said lol
this could of all been avoided if he had bought one when the rest of us suggested and when my mom suggested. i have told him before this would happen one day bc of the things i'd found on my car before. i'm not buying a mower, it's his house, his lawn, etc. i offered to mow it bc i don't mind doing it and yes bc i live there. i do try to pull some weight with the chores. i'm just pissed bc it all could have been avoided if he had bought one instead of spending all this money on them. he could have bought a damn riding lawn mower as often as they seem to come.

lol why should i buy the lawn mower? it's not my lawn. being a good son is doing the chores your parents ask you to, duh. so i do that. i'm not going to buy a lawn mower that he won't want or doesnt like. that's his decision. i told him i would do it instead of shelling out money for other people to do it when he has two able bodied sons that are willing to do it. no brainer there. i am far from spoiled too. i paid for it all, how's that spoiled? lol
