Check out my Christmas present!



Someone keyed my truck. Across the hood, down the passenger side front fender, passenger front door, did a loopty loop on the passenger rear door, across rear fender and finishing across the tail gate. Wicked excited. Insurance says that if I make a claim then my premium goes up, happy happy joy joy! So I'm wondering how easy this would be for me to fix. I tried to take a really close up shot to show I don't think it went through the primer, I think it's just through clear and the top coat of paint. It might even just be through the clear, it's definitely through at least the clear. I'm able to do body work but I don't have much experience so any advice offered would be greatly appreciated.
Low-life SOBs... that irritates me to no end. I had an old ex gf punch the hood of mine and vaseline the windows, nice lil dimple on the hood, shortly after I got it. I was at a local bar, visiting old friends.
If its not too deep like you say, try some rubbing compound and a buffer. Those Mother's buffing ***** are inexpensive and work wonders too. Just becareful and dont overwork an area. I had my best friend borrow my truck to move something (not ever happening again for anyone other than maybe family) He he used some bungy cords that strapped over the box. It left some nice long wear marks everywear, I was able to buff them out with that ball and a cordless with soem rubbing compound and a nice wax once I was finished. I can't believe the insurance would increase much though for a claim like that. Sounds like they dont want to pay...
Good luck

Man that sucks!! As lghtngnlt02 said some buffing compound and a buffer would probably take them out, at least so nobody else notices them. I once caught somebody trying/attempting to key my wife's car. Was walking out of the grocery store with a cart full of stuff, noticed someone sketchy by the car. "Snuck" up on them, set the panic alarm off and rammed them with the cart. Police showed up and let us go, needless to say he wont be doin that again... I hope the best man
I see metal in that first picture.
Sure looks like you pissed someone off, some people are just low life's. Did this happen at your house/apartment? In public?
If public I would request security cameras.

Man i think I would kill somebody if I saw them do that to my baby.
What a bad one dude, but hey at least it's better than any mechanical problem I guess..
A little unrelated:
Usually when I park I park far back in the parking lot, I try to park next to a tree, bushes, pole or anything that may decrease my odds of getting my doors slammed by 50%, lol
Also its a good idea to park next to nice cars. More than likely, the owner of a Challenger won't bang their doors against anything.
Oh also, if you have the choice of parking on the driver or passenger side of any other vehicle try to park on the passenger side since you can at least hope that there won't be a passenger to open that door.
But your problem was getting keyed...somebody must really hate you

Did you double park? I watched an old lady key a rich ##### ram 2500 Christmas eve because he double parked in the first spots (didn't pull threw, half and half kinda thing) so she promptly keyed the crap outa it. I was like go granny go! I felt bad for the truck though, only because it was clearly being used as a grocery getter, not a truck.
But anywho, find a detail shop, that's your best bet
