nothing. Eggs are quite possibly one of the worst things that can be hurled at a car.

as you see, the egg shell upon impact will shatter into make small sharp pieces that will cut the paint down to the metal. there's nothing that can be done to lessen the look besides adding touchup and wetsanding it down level or repainting the panel.

...it really blows...it hit rite in the middle of the passenger side door and spread all the way to the taillight......i could not have been more pi$$ed...only thing i can think to do untill i can get it repainted is slappin on a graphic to cover it up...but then i feel cheap bc i kno that all i did was cover it up instead of fixing it.....im really hopin that it wont be that noticable in the day light..but i dont think that will happen bc i can see it pretty good at nite...im actually scared to go look at it in the day time.....
