Repair Scrape Damage on Frozen Paint (Lease end issue)?

Hi Everyone,

My car was parked and a car pulling in scraped the driver-side front and rear door slightly. I was able to remove most of the paint transfer but there were still a few light scrapes and marring of the paint (Frozen Gray).

I know with frozen paint there are not really many options... It's not too bad/noticeable unless you know where to look.

My main question is whether I'll get charged at lease turn-in for the damage (you'll see the two marks are slightly larger than a 2inch credit card height).

If I were to be charged, I think I'd want to try to correct (PPF car? find a specialist to repaint/match?) and pursue through insurance. I was able to get the other driver's info.

Thanks in advance, and pictures here:

If you got hit by someone else I would just get it fixed through their insurance.
