A-hole keyed my car!!!!



They got all up and down the driver's side of my hood, but luckily it looks like they didn't get through the clear coat (2 stage paint). Hopefully the Mecquier's 3 stage system will mask it pretty well. And thankfully my car is a silver/grey color so it doesn't show up too much.

But as some of yall know, I just had this thing painted a few months ago, so needless to say I'm still pissed none-the-less.

Any tips on buffing it out?

Yeah, I remember your car. The gunmetal gray one right? (more or less) You could just try using the Meguiars stuff, if that doesn't work, look into getting it wetsanded and buffed out. Good luck. And Camaro haters suck.

Last time that happened to my friend we both took off from work for 2 days and camped out with a BB gun. He parked it in the same spot and we waited, watching from his window (apt complex). The idiot did come back to do more vandalism and my friend shot him in the butt. It was great. People on the street were happy because the guy had been randomly doing stuff like that to cars on the street. Never saw the guy again.
