aahhh!! cigarette burn!

Hey,
i was driving in my dad's car.. and i was smoking a cigarette with my girlfriend. her hair was all done-up for formal so i had the windows closed but the roof open, so we can ash. then she has to ash, but she misses, and hits the ceiling of my dad's car, which btw is a bmw 540i (6-speed ) now there is a burn mark and a little hole. I need to clean that up. Is there any type of solution or anything that can clean burn marks?? if this helps, my dad's car has the gray ceiling.

thx in advance

Axel

ps: if worst comes to worst, i'll have to ask bmw to replace it.. how much do you guys think that'll cost?

hahaha yah.. i learned that lesson..
my solution was... I got some acrylic paint over at JoAnn's. Mixed the black and white together to get the grey, and painted over it, and waited til it dried, then filled in the hole with some more paint. dad hasn't noticed yet, but once i save up enough money and my dad goes out of town again i'll bring it over tehre
