Default So some one keyed my car.

Some loser in my condo complex keyed my car today. Ran my son to school did some thing, then when I left to pick him up it was there.(i was home for no more then 30 minutes) Front to back all the way from the headlight to the rear edge of the rear door. Nice and deep too. Threw the clear and into the color. But not into the primer thank god. Its a fairly level line right at door handle level(yes they keyed right across those too).

So here is my question. I cant afford to get it fixed at a body shop, just dont have the funds. I guess my only other option would be some kinda basic grfx down the side. A buddy of mine suggested a mines stye strip down the side. My car is blackcherrypearl so the scratch stick out like you wouldnt belive.

So if you guys could just usggest something simple abd basic. And also a color.

Thanks

Find out who did it, most likely a person who lives by you. Then beat the ____ out of them, steak their stuff out of their appt, sell it, get a brand new nice paint job.

So here it a pic of it. I have an idea of who it was. There is this redneck POS loser drunk that lives in the same building as me and he would have walked right past my car getting to his. And he left while I was home for that 30 minutes and I know for a fact he doesnt like me. But I dont do anyhting to ____ any one off or anything just keep to myself.

i cant see why people are idiots and do things like that. Now you have to go spend a load of money on a new paint job or get a graphic that you didnt want to buy in the first place... My idea... slap the guy who did it and take his money

Sorry for the damage. Find out who did it, grab your baseball bat and start swinging, once they're down on the ground run him/her over with your box. I'm sure when it's all said and done, it'll make you feel better.

That is a real piece of low life sub-human scum! I hope he gets his real soon. Did you make a police report? If anyone does that to my box and I know who it is I wont be responsible for what happens next!

If you go to www.paintscratch.com, you can order the actual paint color and gelcoat to cover the scratch.

They have all the chemicals you need to thin and apply the paint, and they come in paint pens.

I ordered this myself to paint over a door scratch I got a day after I bought my car. I know the feeling.

Good luck

I absolutely cannot comprehend the mindset of someone who would do such things to other people's cars. Its such a horrible act of disrespect. We in society have a sense of trust in eachother when we leave our cars unattended in parking lots, and for someone to mess with another's car, is just dispicable.

Sorry for the key job dude; I can't say I've ever had that problem since my car is so bashed up anyway. Although I pray that never happens to my xB when I get it.

File a police report. That is criminal mischief right there.
