This is unfortunate, but happens often. If you get a sheet of 2000 grit 3M wet or dry sandpaper, soak in warm water with a teaspoon of dish soap for about 5 minutes then very gently and evenly sand the paint that rubbed off the other vehicle. When you are finished, buff back to a shine with rubbing compound and a buffer or work by hand. The 2000 grit will feel like a piece of paper it is so fine, but this will gently knock down the paint that rubbed off the other car. The dull look that your car will be is beacuse it knocked down the clearcoat on your car also. This is not a bad thing. This is the process to remove orange peel from the clearcoat anyway. When finished it will look like it never happened.
