OMG I feel for you!

I bet it was some hater that was jealous of your beautiful car! I'm always paranoid that something like that is gonna happen to my baby too. *fingers crossed*

Is there anything you can do for that? I worry everyday about that happening to me. Sorry that you were the victim of someone being a jerk.

Man that sucks, I thought my old car got keyed at work but found out it was just someone carrying something and not paying attention and scratch the whole side up.

Sorry to hear about your misfortune. I wonder if it can be buffed out as it doesn't look that deep.

damn people!!!!

I had the same thing happen to my 99 Si, from the front wheel well to the rear. I went to a shop and they sanded down a couple of layers (if i remember correctly), and you couldn't even tell it was there.

Good luck.

I believe the cost was under $100

the same thing happened to my brother's RSX, the very first day he got it! Too deep to take care of, so it stayed there for the whole life of the car.

Can I ask you guys an honest question: Do light cars tend to get keyed less than dark cars?

That question is a bit subjective, don't you think?
