I think some insurance companies cover vandalism without raising your
rates, or penalizing you. You may want to check with your agent.

BUT... I took advantage of this. Body shop told me insurance is paying for all the paint. Bought a Nismo V2 kit, and just had to pay for the prep work.

I'd get an estimate from a decent body shop, it might not be that bad. You'll have to pay one way or the other, up front out of your pocket or a rise in your insurance plus the deductible. Sorry, I feel your pain.

If the scracthes aren't to deep you might get lucky and just hve too rub it out. Try taking it to a detailer for this if you can't rub it out yourself.
