removing "paint scrape" from our car

My wife ran up against the painted wooden edge of our garage door
while backing out the car. Now we have a scraped bright green against
our dark grey, which shows up quite a bit.
I used a lot of elbow grease, plus some soap & water, hoping that it
might just be water based paint that would come off somewhat easily. It
didn't work. Then I tried mineral spirits, hoping that might take it off.
Most of the paint is on a plastic or rubber "bump guard", but a small
amount of it is on the actual driver side door.
Anyone have any suggestions on other concoctions that I might try to get
it off?
Some kind of a soft abrasive. You have a balance between taking off
the paint and scratching/dulling the finish of the car.
Try a scrubby sponge. Or perhaps try Goof Off. If that doesn't work
you'll need to polish the mark off. In the home: toothpaste. At the auto
parts sto rubbing and buffing compound.

Thanks!
