Default Keyed

Yup....6k miles on it and some pr!ck suburban @$$hole decided to run a groove through the clearcoat and into the paintdown the passenger side.

Starts under the mirror and goes all the way down to the passenger rear door. Body shop quoted almost 1100.00 for paint. They said since it has pearl in it, they have to (obviously) do both doors, and the front passenger fender...otherwise, it may not blend nicely. Not too bad for painting the entire passenger-side cab I guess, but ROYALLY sux it happened. I only pray I find out who did it...

Nothing obvious pops out in my head in terms of enemies. No cameras in the area caught anything either.


Thanks for listening. I'm going to get another beer...[sm=bomb.gif]

So sorry only imagine the anger you feel. If you find out who did it whip their a$$. Also it would not be a bad idea to think about pressing charges.

I am sure later on someone may say sue and if you get a cheap lawyer (ex family member) maybe think about it otherwise they may charge more than you can recover. Just my .02

Thanks everyone.....and no, I do not know who did it. It will make the world a better place if and when I find out. [sm=shootshoot.gif]

The only decent thing is thatthe scratch ison the passenger side (rather than driver side)...because everytime I see it, I get friggin' pi$$ed. I will move on, keep my ears to the ground and eyes open for any potential leads.

I hate hearing so many of you went through the same chicken-$h!t ordeal of getting keyed as well.
