Default Haha some dumbass at my HS

Guess what i get for my new black Scion Guys?! a new 5k paint job. some punk at my highschool decided to key every panel of my car, cept the roof (he couldnt reach) and the front left fender, and my school got it ALL on video tape the 3 different times he did it, so im going to court with some highly modified prices on what it will cost to fix it. what color do you guys think i should get for my baby? :D well hit me up later

If it's on tape then you got it made. If you're changing the color. Do something that hasn't been done yet Good luck in court.

take it back to the dealer and milk him for the price.

dealers charge a ____load but they do awesome work!

try to get a rental car for the duration of the paintjob,
and have him pay for it...

Also, aside form getting him to pay for the paintjob, I think you should press charges if you can. Get him to PAY PAY PAY :twisted:

for some ideas on color.

Mazda - Vivid Blue Mist, or Canyon Copper Metallic
Honda - Indy Yellow, or Sunbaked Gold Pearl

I would make him sand it, all by hand, while some body shop guy that just got out prison was watching with M. J. eyes. Jeoulsy, one of the deadly horsemen.

not only do i have it on tape but i have witnesses too, i was hoping i could slip in a carbon fiber hood instead of respraying my old hood, this kid did a killer job on my car i can post some pics later. so you think i should go with a yellow or orange? whats flashy enough to catch eyes but not police eyes, cause i dont drive like a granny :twisted:

Ohhh yaaa. Look up 2001 Toyota paint chips on that site I posted earlier. There's like 10 pages of different colors including the Lexus line :D

Score a dealer paint job, just be sure the color that you goes well with your new carbon fiber hood. :D

all depends, are you just gunna do the outside? if so, 4k would get you a nice paint job with some candy color inside and a nice amount of clear. if your gunna change the color and then spray the inside as well, like the door jams, the trunk lid, etc...then you'd probably like to go for 7k or more if you wanna do the engine bay and this includes stripping the car completely. That's y I said 12k for a dealership paint job cuz they'll go all out

Thank goodness for video cameras. Milk him for everything and then after this incident is long and forgotten go get some of your friends and jump his ___ too :twisted:

Payback is a _____ if done right and they thought it was over and done with.
