What did you do is the question? People dont (normally) randomly key cars for no reason. Were you one of those *******s who parked in the middle of two spots? Did you take someones spot? Were you zipping around the parking lot obnoxiously?

Random violence does happen, but more times than not its due to an action the victim performed knowingly or obliviously.

Reminds me of Pulp Fiction:

Lance: Still got your Malibu?
Vincent: Aw, man. You know what some ****er did the other day?
Lance: What?
Vincent: ****ing keyed it.
Lance: Oh, man, that's ****ed up.
Vincent: Tell me about it. I had it in storage for three years, it was out for five days and some dickless piece of **** ****ed with it.
Lance: They should be ****ing killed. No trial, no jury, straight to execution.
Vincent: Boy, I wish I could've caught him doing it. I'd have given anything to catch that ******* doing it. It'd been worth him doing it just so I could've caught him doing it.
Lance: What a ****er!
Vincent: What's more chicken**** than ****ing with a man's automobile? I mean, don't **** with another man's vehicle.
Lance: You don't do it.
Vincent: It's just against the rules.

This is very sad to see... I always try to take a different car to the mall or gym due to this. There is also a lot of haters down here in Miami.

So do they re-paint the whole side or can it be airbrushed in for the front part, since is not to deep?
I know for sure the quarter panel have to be blended

I feel for you. In my previous car someone anonymously left me a smashed in front quarter panel and door. I suspect they backed up into me but they left and there was no way to track down who did it. Stuff just happens. It sucks.

After seeing my girlfriend into the building, I went back to my car only to see that same couple holding up their small dog so that it could do its business on my car. Maybe they didn't realize the car was mine, or maybe they did, but one thing's for sure - I had never seen these people before in my life and had never done anything to them. So why the hell would they do this to a car that belongs to someone they don't know, and have no vendetta against? I couldn't figure it out.

The first thing I discovered is that most haters are cowards. The people who do this sort of thing, keying other people's car for example, do so by cover of night or only when no one's looking. Even BMW drivers have more guts than them. As I mentioned in my earlier post, I figure most of these types of people don't see any way that they could ever acquire some of the finer things in life, so they get their satisfaction by venting their frustration on people who can.

So anyway, the couple didn't see me approaching as they had their backs to me. When I announced my presence, they were startled. I honestly didn't see what exactly they were doing when I was still at a distance. I thought they were just admiring the engine because I had a see-through NSX-R grill over the engine rather than the solid metal cover that comes stock.

But as I got closer, I realized what they were doing, so once I realized this, I pushed the guy hard and away from my car. He wore glasses and the jolt knocked them loose and the glasses fell onto the ground. I picked them up and wouldn't give them back to him. I asked them what the hell they thought they were doing and the guy just turned beet red with embarrassment. The girlfriend said she told him not to do it, but that he wouldn't listen. I asked them why I shouldn't just go ballistic on them right there and then and it was at that point the guy apologized profusely, saying he was sorry and that he just meant it as a prank.

I told him this "prank" was going to cost him, so without going into too much detail, we settled the matter with them paying me $400 to get my car professionally detailed. His girlfriend went to get the money while I held his spectacles ransom (lol). I figure that ought to hurt him more than me giving him a bloody nose and fueling his hatred for people with more means than he has. To this day, I still get a chuckle out of that whole story.

Awful...I had a much less painful experience recently when someone let the air out of one of my tires and stole the valve cap. I wish we could round all these low-lifes up and send them to a distant island somewhere.

You sure you don't drive like a maniac? I would do the same if you cut me off or annoy me. I seen a car burned down before because they don't know how to park.

^^^Dude, if I cut you off, feel free to cut me off back, cuss me out, whatever...touching the car...not a good response. There is no good reason for anybody to deflate tires, scratch cars, pour salt in a gas tank, etc.

Agree with most posts...there are just some haters in life. If we rounded up everybody who has ever committed an egregious act against another human, there wouldn't be anybody left.

I've had a few people tell me to "slow down" on the streets. Some probably had a point (although 55mph in an AMG is like 35mph in most other cars--ie. breaking distance, maneuverability, etc.). Others didn't. I either said, "Thanks, I'll do that", or "Mind your own business or call the cops". Either way, I don't think a car-keying is in order.

I think if I saw somebody keying the car, I'd do what Sebring did...insist they pay to compensate (on the spot), and if not, call the police...and if they ran to a car, I'd follow them. But at a point, the chase isn't worth it, and the $100 comprehensive covers that sort of damage.

Well that was just my street biker side kicking in. I get heart attacks when people cut me off on my bike.
