OK, first of all please excuse the noob questions; I've never really done any detailing or anything before, only washed and dried my cars using the method on www.polishedbliss.co.uk.
After inheriting my 06 r32 off my Dad, I noticed these blemishes and want to put them right...
First, there's a line on the driver's door where it looks like another car's door has been opened onto it.
Then there's inside the rear offside door where it looks like someone has been a bit clumsy getting in.
Then there's a bit of a scrape where the wiper blades were left folded up and the car was started, and they caught the very edge of the bonet.
Then there's a bit where I clipped a hedgehog on the front bodykit. There was no braking from 60mph for it, it was just over the brow of a hill, and no swerving because of other cars. I had to just take the knock. No photo because I couldn't get one to show it properly - only overexposed because of flash or too dark because of no flash. It's just a little light scuffing on the very bottom of the lip.
The photos here show the blemishes in the worst light; they aren't really noticable, and so I want to take the time and do a proper job instead of rushing it. Preferably DIY, but would consider a professional job if you think it would be a lot better.
Thanks for any advice,

Don't think I'll be going anywhere near my paintwork with sandpaper..!!!! Not got the confidence to do anything like that! But the results look good though, must be a good method.
