Sad Story and Finish Help Needed

So I am an idiot. Over the weekend I was out of my element and ended up putting my Juliets on the top of my car. Well I forgot about them, and the next time I went driving.. well you can guess what happened next. I was going about 45mph when they flew off my car and hit the pavement. I actually didn't even know what they were, but thankfully I went back to look and found them next to the curb. The picture below is what I found.....

So here is my question and why I need help. They are 2nd gen plasma, so from what I understand that it is a coating on the frames. The orbitals are scratched, but don't look terrible, the real eyesore is the nose bridge.

So my question is, what do I do next? I have a dremel, but I am sure if I tried to polish out the scratches, they would look terrible. Perhaps I could get a new nose bridge, but I have not idea how I would do that. So, I reach out to the community, what is the best way to make these look as good as they can again?
 
:( That is sad, but at least you got it back before someone else ran it over - it could have been worse.

With those scratches by the time you buff them out the finish would be off. If you can live with the orbitals as-is I'd go Ti02.
 
Sucks that that happened, but at least they are still alive and can be refinished to look new again. A less durable frame would probably not have survived.
 
I know exactly how you feel. I'd go with x-man but from my point of view it only adds character.
 
Doesn't look terrible. We've seen way worse done to X metals. It doesn't doesn't mean you should put them on top of your car like a baby! ...I would still wear them as is just saying
