Default Im taking off my spoiler...

I have an 02 gt and i really like the look of them when the spoiler has been removed so i took mine off. I used nylon plugs to fill the bolt holes in the trunk but i still have one problem. Where the spoiler was sitting on the trunk lid it left these white, almost scratch like marks in the clear coat. Does anyone have any idea how to get this stuff off...any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried a buffer and turtle wax?

I used Meguire's scratch remover....it worked pretty well...now you can only notice the marks from very close up.

i used the mr clean magic erasers to clean mine up when i moved my spoiler back, but i heard your not suppose to use them on cars paint, but my cars white, so there wasnt really any fading that I saw, but those things are amazing.
