Large scratch

Does anyone know if there is anyway to fix this scratch other than repainting? The previous owner has touched it up with touch-up paint, but it doesnt look very nice

Thanks

Way too big. A fender respray would be your optimum option.

Respray. ~500 bucks at a *good* bodyshop and you'll be thrilled.
