Dude, I hate to hear stories like this, especially the time is near Christmas. People just don't know how to respect property these days. Other times they are jealous that they can't have what you have. Hope that it can be fixed. Good luck to you.

If only you could catch these *******s in the act...

that's terrible. Sorry to hear about that.
i remember when Clinton was president, some American kid was found guilty of having vandalized a whole bunch of cars in Singapore or Malaysia and the court system over there sentenced him to receive a number of lashes for his crime. Too bad we don't punish people who vandalize other people's cars like so.

no. i was acturally in downtown fullerton, around the rockin taco, back ally area...
im pretty sure both comprehesive and collision are both $500 dunno if painted 2 doors would be too much over that? cuz if its like 700 or so. ill prolly just pay it out from my pocket... what can you say...
the funny thing is. i talked to the police office there(waiting outside the bar getting ready to bust drunk drivers) and hes like, yea nothing much we can do about it. you can go down to the station and file a report.... and thats about it. went down to the station. the entrance is locked...WTF.. isnt a police station supposed to be open 24/7.... so i was really bummed out so i just left.

I am so sorry to hear read this blkc230k - especially with a gorgeous car like yours.
Unfortunately, in situations like these, there is not a whole hell of a lot you can do.
There are a lot of haters and jealous people out there. I greatly restrict where I go at night time because I am afraid of some drunk fool, who does not give a damn for someone elses property, messing up my car.
I imagine having the doors repainted by an MB dealer will be pricey and over your $500 deductible. If it's a lot over, I'd file a claim. If it's only $100-$250 over, you may be better off paying out of pocket as your premium will likely increase if you file a claim.
Again, my condolences on your car. If you find out who did this, I hope you their ****!

I am always trying to be cautious that I'm not driving the Benz when in certain
parts of town....where old flame might be out and about. That's a guaranteed
keying. Dbl that now that her boyfriend has bought into that revenge mentality. Sad. Have already had the truck vandelized 2x. no proof.
I'm sorry you had to go through that experience.
American idiot spray painted cars. Got caned.

For a temporary fix while you figure out what to do, get a bottle of Turtle Wax colored wax with lipstick gizmo. Rub the black lipstick perpendicular to the scratch to fill it in and then use the black wax to clean off the excess.

Make sure she's looks good when you take her out and you don't leave her alone in an area where drunk f'kers are gonna hit on her.
It's the class warfare Benzo curse my friend.....so sorry they go to you!!!
It's just wrong.
Sometimes I wish we could be more like England.....just have the local Big Brother cam pull up the incident...just about everything is on tape.

Just thought I would recommend people call their agents and look into it at the very least.

Jealousy is like greed....
"Jealousy is like greed, in the end neither one works".
I am very sad to see your beautiful car get the key job, that is pure jealousy bull****. If people can not take others being successful or MORE successful than them, then they should get a new job, new career or go back to school to make it happen. This is the USA, if you don't like your current situation you can change it.
PS: I think your picture is one of the most beautiful pictures of a C230 SS I have ever seen, I have it right in front of me on my desk.
