    Like what the title says I my got keyed last night at a local walmart. I was wondering if there's anything I could do to repair it or makes it less noticeable? If I run my finger nail over the scratch I can feel it. Has the scratch gone pass the clear coat?

    Mostly likely yes it has gone through the clear. How bad is the keying though is it all over the car? If so I would contact you car insurance provider and get this fixed. I may cost you your detectable but they won't hold it against you and raise your rates since it is not your fault. I have seen this happen to a couple of friends before.

    What kinda car is it? Just keyed for no reason (ie. you weren't taking up two spots in the front of the lot)? :shakehead:

    One of our family vehicles was the victim of $2000 worth of damage 2 weeks ago from a few drunk kids who came to the wrong address. Caught the assholes in the act at 3:15 in the morning, they are now facing felony criminal mischief and trespassing charges (IIRC), and are being charged as adults.

    Sorry to hear about your vehicle, when I hear such things it's not only sad but extremely frustrating.

    I sent you a PM but I agree how about posting a picture of the damage.

    There is something you can do about the scratch, just have to be careful that's all.

    Why? Why do people do such ignorant things? Because you have a nice car and they don't? There's just NO excuse.I'm sorry to hear this.

    I got an adjuster to take a look at it and it seems that it will cost a little under my deductible ($500) some how. I'm gonna try and fix it myself and hopefully make a DIY while i'm at it if the results comes out nice.

    Wow, that really, really sucks. WTF is wrong with people?

    More and more, I drive the beater around town. It already needs paint anyway. If someone keys it, fine by me. When I do drive the S2000 to someplace like the mall, I always park it all by itself...and sometimes, I wonder if I'm just asking for trouble by doing that.

    I agree with you, that's why I don't feel bad driving my old, rust bucket to work and around town, all vehicles have a purpose, even the old ones :thumb:
