As the subject says, can the scratches below be removed without repainting. The big curved one I can feel when I run my fingers across it. The other ones I cannot.

Damn neighborhood kids scratched it playing around the car. most likely from a bicycle or something. I told the parents to have their kids stay away from my car. Another reason to leave NYC.

If it is just a scrape across the surface, you might get away with polishing it out. If it is deep, rather than flat, (it looks flat to me), you should be ok... Take it to a detailers/bodyshop and ask there. They should be able to help you.
