I have used this with good results on some minor scratches...

For more deeper scratches, I use polishing compound followed by wax (this was on my non-7thgencivic, and have not attempted using it on a 7thgencivic yet)

^^thats some good stuff. it takes some elbow grease but it works. If you can feel the scratches with your finger nail then they are too deep to remove. The clear plastic cleaner that meguiars makes works great! I cleaned my girlfriends headlights with it and they look better than new.
