Well that just plain SUCKS.
One thing, though. That clearcoat tends to scuff white and look worse than it really is. I had one, not as bad as yours, but pretty ugly nonetheless, and I was able to buff 99.9% of it out with a progressive cutting compound.
Might make it a little easier to look at until you get it repaired.
