Got Hit in the Parking Lot

So, I finally picked up my baby 3 weeks ago (Sorry it's not a BMW ). Love it dearly, no complaints, until some asshat drove into me in my school parking lot... There's a quarter-sized dent now w/ a little trail and some paint transfer. Any advice on how to get the dent out?

I'll try to clay the shit out of it to get the black paint off of my silver car... I tried using the blowdryer/compressed air thing, but it didn't get the dent out fully.

TIA!

Paintless Dent Removal (PDR) will get that out no problem.

Use a "Cutter" or "Cleaner" wax and buff out the paint transfer. Should look good as new.

Will I need a porter cable, or the like, or can I do it with a simple microfiber?

It's so annoying... What sucks even more is my car isn't even broken in yet.
