eh, got keyed from from fender to the back.
Worse of all its so visible because my car is blk.
F***, and i just had Hemant detail it too!!!
Anyhow, was wondering if the metal will rust if i just leave it for the time being? the key is pretty deep, just dont have the funds to go fix it. Mayeb go claim insurance somehow?? ahhhhhh

Damn that sucks man! What'd you do???? JK

If you want to go a cheaper route, there's a guy I found on Craigslist that can sand, repaint and blend in the panels. He only charges $250 a panel...so looks like it would only cost $750. He warantees the work for 2 years....so if you want a temporary fix (or possibly permanent if you sell it in a couple years), you could go this route. He's known as Dr. Dent.

I had him fix my bro's M3 hood my wife dented...the dent repair and paint match looks perfect!

any good body shops you guys recommend? im too in shock right now to search...but i'll probably use the search function on this forum tomorrow...
arrrggghhhh!!!!

rocket: thanks, i'll look into it, but i thnk insurance might be the best way to go if it's covered. Probably going to look for a more permanent solution. I guess that means repainting one whole side of the friggin car!! im soooo annoyed!!! ahhhhh

^^Don't do that!!!

Pay your $500 deductible for your insurance. Insurance will cover this, and your premiums don't go up at all, since it's not your fault. Vandalism is covered, look into your insurance policy.
I just went through this last month...my car got keyed 2x within a 3 month span in Boston. I paid $500 and my insurance covered the cost for my whole car to get repainted.

its threads like these that make me over obsessive about checking my G to see if its been egged or keyed.

makes me wonder about the last person i passed out on the road

You don't need some guy trying to match/sand the side of your G. You pay
for insurance, it's time to use it! Seems the world is full of Haters nowdays.
A person with nice cars and homes doesn't stand a chance. I would be fun
to catch someone doing that to our cars, even if we spent the day in jail
it would be worth kick'in some butt/bustin head! "Somebody get a rope!"
