Yes, litely sand the pieces till the scratches are gone, then use black bumper paint to recover them. Use fine grit sandpaper, becuase you don't want to make more scratches or remove the texture.

Thats sounds like it would work, however, my interior pieces are gray, so the black paint wouldn't work. would something else work? thank you for responding.

i'm in the process of converting one of my cars gray interior to black, so I got a bunch of black panels from the junkyard. Many of them had scratches. I used a dish scrubbing pad to clean them and the green scratchy side polished out the scratches and wore down the texture just a little. They look fine unless you look really close. Didn't take long either.
