If I remember correctly, it was 146 Nm - had to break out the big torque 
wrench to go high enough. I'm sure someone will quickly correct me if I've 
got the value wrong.

Did it just nick the paint or go down to metal ? If the scratch is light, I 
would use some s100 scratch remover / finish restorer. If down to the 
metal, use a little bit of black automobile touch up paint.
