Paint damage...need help

A few months ago, my car was egged. I got it all off pretty much right away and it was all ok, except for where one egg hit on my drivers side front fender. Right where it hit, the paint spidered(?) and is all messed up. How can I fix it, short of repainting by a shop? Or am I pretty much stuck with it? Here are some pictures of it, they arent the best, but they give you an idea.

polishing compound or scratch remover should help.

Re: Paint damage...need help

if you buff it with a real buffer, not a cheap polisher from walmart. It should come off, your going to need a heavy cut compound though. The bodyshop will be able to do it or if you have a friends that know how to use one you should be good. Worst case, your goin to have to sand it out with 1000 grit paper, then 2000, then 3000, then buff it. But you should be able to get rid of that without painting/refinishing it.
