I've given up on fussing about shit like this. Driver door has a big ding on it (the dent itself, I probably won't fix), door also has paint scratches on it from the cloud of gravel that caused said ding. The bumper has a few scratches here and there from who knows what. I've scraped exiting parking lots on the sides of hills, exiting driveways, etc. I had a scratch on my bumper from an apartment contractor who backed into the car, but I was rear-ended a month later and, well, the bumper is brand new. The trunk lid has a scratch from where the police officer set his clipboard down on it. And of course the paint has swirls (yay black paint) from the dealer cleaning the car before I got it.

No point in fussing over the details. It's not a showroom car, and as long as the two little humps over the wheels look good, that's all I care about behind the wheel. The car is much more fun driving it than standing outside of it and staring at it. Granted, I am getting the paint fixed on the door - the dent isn't bad, but really scratched up paint *does* look pretty bad. But the little things aren't something to really worry over.
