Go pick up some light compound/polish, something that has some cutting power to it, get a foam applicator pad and some quality plush microfiber towels and follow the steps on the bottle. I would finish up with a synthetic sealant, then wax.
Go to autogeek.net for all of the above. They have some good forums on there too. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

Thanks everyone! I used some polish and waxed afterwards. It' still slightly visible from certain angles, but most people won't be able to tell.

Keep polishing and waxing that area. Over time it will be invisible. Even better, go get yourself a winged fiberglass or carbon trunk if you like that sort of thing.
