I park at a pretty packed parking lot at work so door dings/scratches are not uncommon. I've tried everything to avoid them(parking next to the curb, far away, etc etc) and I still manage to get a ding/scratch here and there. Anybody know any quick fixes aside from going in the body shop? Light scratches I can rub off with the scratch remover but the small/deeper ones won't come off no matter what.

Get the paintless dent removal, like Dent Wizard.

Dent Wizard is great for dents. But deeper scratches are just that - scratches in the clearcoat and/or paint which can't be buffed away. Depending on what you're dealing with exactly, you might want to try a Dr. Colorchip kit or more traditional BMW touch-up paint. I would highly recommend doing some homework beforehand and reading about proper techniques.

What are you using for scratch remover? ScratchX is usually effective by hand.

Just google paintless dent repair. I have used these companies several times. The most recent was when I closed the hood on a ratchet sitting on one of the engine covers.

Made a nice dent OUTWARD in my hood.

Called one of those places, they drove out to me and they made it perfect in about 30 mins. $80.

Highly recommended.
