hey guys im a new member to the forum but i come to the site to check out wssup sometimes. But yea ive had my 05 G35 for over a year now. but today something really bad happen when i came out to the parking lot. some ***got keyed my car on the driver side door all the way to the rear bumper and it continue on to the other side...it was a devastating feeling when i saw it!!!! i called the police to file a report and ill be letting my insurance know about it soon.
im wondering if anybody had the same experience as what i had today and what procedure you took to fix it. please help my G

 

That's terrible to hear and I feel your hurt, I had a hater keying my Volks but that's not half what you suffered. I also had someone hit & run after backing over my front bumper in a Target parking lot. Your insurance should cover you're getting a new paint job due to vandalism. Make sure you take it to a reliable shop where they do perfect work! Sorry....

Had the same thing happen to me also. Make a claim with your insurance. Pay your deductible and take it to reputable shop.
An alarm with tilt and shock sensors would be a great investment now.

 

may i ask how much was the deductible?

 

Whats your insurance deductible? Ours have nothing to do with yours. Usually it's $500 / $1000. Call your insurance and ask them. If you can afford at the time to pay the deductible then make the claim. If not you can still make the claim and let them know you wont be taking the car to fix until you have the deductible. Call them. They can point you in the right direction

 

@ Gary c and Tian, someoned keyed your guys Volks. I would go fvcking ape **** if someone did that to my Volks.

 

Sorry to hear about this.

I usually try to be inconspicuous by parking on the farther end of the parking lot, but not sure if that ever helps. When the haters hate, they'll hit; then they'll get hit back twice as hard.

 

My rims weren't keyed. Every panel but the left rear quarter received some hate.

Pretty easy to say but I unless you camp out near your car it can happen. Just gotta hope to catch them when they're in the process

OP call your insurance

 

man.. i always park not far away but still very to the far end side of the parking lot next to a curb so only one car can park next to me but some people just cant keep there hands to themselves and have to **** with other peoples stuff. :\

 

Here's the wonderful job some ******* did to my car last summer. They also offered a side of slashed tires.

I usually park in an isolated corner of a parking lot to avoid dumb people swinging their doors into my car, or even dumber people hitting it while pulling in/out of a parking space. However that makes an easy target for *******s to vandalize the car because it's easy to spot... Can't have anything nice in this world without some douchebag fvcking it up for you.

Anyway, I had to pay a $500 deductible and the estimate for the body damage was average $1800 across 3 shops. It'll probably be more since you got tagged on both sides, but that shouldn't matter because it's your insurance company that's paying

Every cloud has a silver lining, and that's pretty much true for this case. Since you'll have to get the entire car painted, this would be a perfect opportunity to buy that new bodykit or maybe even a new custom color or something. The insurance won't pay for that, but it will be cheaper to do it now because all you're already paying for the paint job reguardless of whether it's the factory part or the aftermarket (depending on where you need the work done that is). Some bodyshops might even throw in a free deal to paint some small things here and there while they're fixing up your car; I believe my friend managed to wiggle that in when he had something happen to his car (new trunk, hood, front bumper)

It still really sucks to see this happen. I really am disgusted at people who would go through the effort to do this to someone else's hard work and pride. A lot of us take a lot of time out of our lives to make our cars one-of-a-kind really expensive toy, and to see it get trashed by some jealous ******* is . The person at my bodyshop made me feel a little better by saying "at the end of the day, all it is is some metal and plastic which can be fixed with a little time and hard work." Good luck!

 

That really sucks man. I hate these ***gots that want to ruin our cars out of jealousy or something. I had some pieces of **** egg my car a few months back and that was a hell session getting all the little pieces of shell and goo out of the tight spots.

 

ouch... that's why i only use my g to cruise or to go to work sometimes... everything else, i use my '06 limited 4runner... lotta haters out there, especially when you attract the attention of the wrong crowd...

 

Glad I live in texas. People know better not to try that or they will get a face full of buckshot. Well still have to be scared of the exs...

 

that suck man, i would be really **** when that happen to me. sorry to heard that man.

 

whats the point of doing this? I can understand MAYBE if it was like the guy your wife cheated on, but some random person? People are sick...
