Clay bar works magic on stuff like that. If not then get a light polisher, Menzerner or something like that.

3M scratch remover has worked the best for me in the past. That, a foam applicator pad, and microfiber cloth.

if its paint transfer then clay bar will take care of it, if the clear coat is scratched then you need to compound it.

this was always my biggest fear, both on the giving and receiving end.

i put a rubber end cap on my rear receiving hitch in my LR disco just to avoid scrapping anyone.

try scratch remover first with a soft rag. the meguirs shown here works good. That might do it.
If not, you need a orbital like the Porter Cable 7424. That should do it. If that won't, you might have to wet sand first. Based on the pictures, I think I could get rid of all that in 10 minutes with the PC and some buffing compound.

good luck.
