It basically just stripped off the coat of wax/polish you had.
Just wash the car with your regular car wash soap and reapply your favorite wax or polish. I've spilt gas numerous times on my car, mostly from faulty pumps, and you wouldn't ever know it happened if you look at the car.
Now, brake fluid is another story....

I really dont think it shoudl have done much damage if any at all since you washed it right off and wiped most of it off. I tend to spill gas out of mine alot since i use my grandparents tank and top it off until it wont hold anymore. I just wipe it off and it hasnt eatin my paint yet. the only fluid i know causes alot of damage fast is brake fluid.
You can just use a detailer or soup down the area where the gas spilt. Cars with clearcoats really don't have to worry about gas spills. Gas can yellow paint overtime if it gets spilled on the paint alot and isnt cleaned off. Just clean it off and it will be okay....even if it still smells like gas.
To make you feel better:
I once went to a self serve gas station and proceeded to "fill her up." This particular station was one that still had the "lock" for the nozzle in place, meaning you could pull the lever on the nozzle up all the way and the "lock" would engage so you don't have to stand there and hold it while it fills. So, I lock the nozzle and go into the convenience store and grab a drink.
While inside, someone comes in and says "Is that your black Mustang?" to which I answer "yes." The person then tells me that the gas is overflowing out of my gas tank, so I run outside and see gas flowing all down the side of my car and onto the ground.
So my friend, you spilled 1/3 of a gallon while I (or the pump) spilled over 5 gallons. If you were to ever see my car, you wouldn't know it ever happened.

Ya, look at it now....it's some aweful ass yellow color. Dogs must seek that bad boy out when it's bathroom time.
Nah, you cleaned most of it off. You're getting worked up again too.
Breathe......breathe......breathe
also j/k I don't mind any color mustang. Black being one of my favorites for the reflections.
