Default Nightfall Mica RX350 Vandals Keyed my Car-LA body shop?

Hello everyone! I'm having a really bad day. This morning I parked at a parking garage and when i returned to my car i noticed some punk keyed my front door all the way to the passenger door. I tried checking if there was a camera by the parking spot I parked unfortunately the garage did not have one. The paint is keyed fairly deep. I got quoted that it will need a respray repaint the driver and passenger door. I have a Nightfall Mica Rx. I live in So Cal Los Angeles. Anyone know or have suggestions for a reputable Lexus Certifified Autobody or a shop that can paint match well. Also Any suggestions on how i can claim this on my insurance and not take a point in my record? Your suggestions are appreciated. Be careful out there folks!

Sorry, to hear about your car. I'm sure there is a shop within this link that can help. If all else fails contact your local Lexus dealer. As for making a claim with your insurance. I would check with your agent to see
if vandalism gets a pass. Good luck!

Auto Explosion in Gardena.

used them in 2008 when my car was keyed similar to yours, and again in 2011 when an oil change monkey backed my truck into his tool box and scratched the hell out of my tailgate.

in both cases the vehicles were factory pearl coat type paint and they matched and blended it perfectly.

I used Harry's Auto Collision Center in mid LA. Perfectly matched my Obsidian paint. Beverly Hills Lexus, Beverly Hills Aston Martin, Beverly Hills Bentley, and Beverly Hills Rolls Royce bring their cars here. They are certified for Aston Martin and for work on aluminum. Harry's Auto Collision
