Sorry to hear that!
Depends on how deep the pins strips are?
Surfaces scratches can be buffed out.
Deeper scratches that you can feel will need to be painted.

ive been looking at them and they are deep, but so is the mud in the trails!! I think im going to have to way off the pain of adding pin stripes with the enjoyment of hearing the rig scream through anything i can put it upto!!!!

If they are light - not through the clear coat, you can use a VERY light grade buffing compound/wet sand. If they are down to the primer...it is painting time.

It bothered me at first, but now i kinda like them... helps prove i bought this monster for what it was built for !! And im very pleased with its performance. I had no close calls of even getting stuck, i even had it buried at one point in some deep ruts where i could hear it bottoming out but still continued to progress forward....hell ya she's a machine and more!!!

If You can hang Your finger nail in the scratch You will not be able to buff it out. If it is into the paint it will require sanding painting and clear coat.
