Keyed.....or why I can't have nice things.
 

Deep gash down the full length of the passenger door. Hu-effing-ray. Watch yourselves people, the haters are out there.

I think Tarantino said it best....

Anyways, how much should I expect to repaint a door? This isn't a buff job.

Oh man... that sucks. Best of Luck. Find a reputable shop in your area... I know you say it can't be buffed out, but you may be surprised.

I'm going to take it to my dealerships body shop tomorrow. Probably more expensive but I figure they'll do a good job.

Yikes. Where were you parked?

It happened either Monday or Tuesday, so that leaves work (unlikely, we have cameras, but they're down this week and I park far away from anyone), my apartment complex, a local bar, or my gym.

I've called around to everywhere but the gym, no cameras. They gym has cameras and I'll be checking that tonight.

My money is on it happening at the bar. Parking is close and someone would feel hidden enough to do it. Its a pretty classy joint, but who knows.

That sucks big time! I know the pain, I got hit once in Santa Clara, CA while parked behind a movie theater. I had a favorite spot there, extra wide spot. Both sides were scratched, one door kicked (left a dent). I had a custom stripe that went around the whole car that needed to be completely redone, custom airbrush work was not gonna be easy to replicate.

getting "keyed" will definitely require repaint, nadda on the buff, wishful thinking...

Is it just the door or did they nick the panels too? Mind posting a picture or two?

sucks...friend of mine had to repair 2 doors on his bimmer and it cost him 1000+...
i am guessing mid hundreds+?

I'll post the gruesome pictures later. At work now.

that sucks, karma will hopefully get them.

that sucks man...sorry to hear it, this is when we need some kind of electricfying device to protect our cars

that sucks man!

if someone keys my car while it's in a parking garage, i swear to god, i'll key ALL the other cars in the garage.

wow, I'm speechless...:eek3:

Damn. Losers key cars. No one with respect to automobiles would key a car. The way my insurance works is that hit and runs or vandalism is covered and repaired at no cost to me - no deductible - nothing. See if your insurance has anything in place for u? Me personally when parking and and pulling out and even walking by cars I treat each car as my own. even when driving my old beater cars I park and open doors to not hit my neighbours door. Am I a dying breed these days O Lord?

Sorry to hear that. That really sucks. This is why we need to add shock sensors to the crapy stock car alarm.
