Man! I just discovered a six inch scratch that is very deep, it also dents in alittle. It is on the driver side at the corner light. The scratch also chipped my corner light a little. There is also a huge 18 inch scratch near the bottom of the bumper, not too deep. There are also various other scratches on my front left end.I think it must have happened light when I was parking at chinatown. I think what happened was some idiot came way too close to my left side. (S)he must have been trying to pull into the spot in front of me but that F*cker couldnt park for $hit. I'm so pissed. I bought the car for less than a month, now I got to fix it.
I was wondering if I can fix it myself. If so, please give me some advice. If not, how much should i expect to pay to fix it? Thanks in advance

Those sound like some serious dents and scratches. For deep scratches that have gone down to the bare metal, you will have to put primer on the scratch and repaint it. I would go to a body shop and get an estimate. From what you describe, it sounds like a hit-and-run case. Your insurance may cover you. Good luck!
