Thumbs down My car got shot with paintballs! WTF?!

So I come outside to find this:




After washing it off I'm left with this:





So looks like I'm going to need my BRAND NEW emblemless grill repainted, my front & rear bumper, both driver side doors, driver side mirror, rear quarter panel & driver side fender all have little dents/scratches & stains so they will need to be repainted too!
Like ugh wtf who paintballs a car? That's some messed up crap ugh.
