well it looks like the clear is still there at least. As long as it isn't flaking you may be able to buff it out. Might not be as good as new but it'll be better.

Have a body or detail shop buff it. You'll spend a good bit of money on equipment, pads and compounds to do it yourself. Not to mention it's tricky unless you have someone to teach you how to not burn the paint off.
