Yes I've got some, it will get the marker pen off the front wing a treat
A gentle rubbing action should take of that !
Don't rub too hard as it could damage the finish Only dead fish go with the Flow !

I'd guess something went too close to it on it's left side, putting it into a spin on a fast road, very similar to what happened to mine earlier this year, fortunately mine wasn't as badly damaged as this one is....2016 Discovery 4 Commercial

Yep sounds feasable but the damage on the nearside is not consistant.
There are score dents in varying directions, the metal looks as if it's been crumpled & unfolded, and it's even protruding outwards on the front door. ...... always on the road less travelled 🚧

As well as the o/s/r wheel being out of line and the damage above the tail light I would say it has gone into a spin after a tap on the n/s and then hit something hard on the o/s/rCheers Ian

Judging by the crease mark with downward pressure I reckon a Lorry bumper or similar....

I think he propably hit a graffiti artist, cos if you look at the front wing someones written all over it.
I reckon he got him before he could do any further damage with his marker pen....... always on the road less travelled 🚧
