Re: some hood rats keyed my car

Sorry to hear that, shame you could not get hold of the little f*****s. Had it done to a car I had too so I now how it feels.
Guess nobody is supposed to have nice cars eh?, don't suppose all the t-cut in the world will mask it?, how deep is the scratch?. Had you ticked anyone off or did anyone tick you off prior to parking the vehicle?

Re: coupe paintwork

if your handy with T-cut and a touch up you can do it yourself. But I'm guessing as you asking for a price to fix your not. Post a pic if you can.

Re: coupe paintwork

Hi mate sorry to hear about the coupe, visit a few local bodyshops and get a couple of quotes, but it works out about £100 a panel to paint, then repairs on top say .5 per panel per scratch, then comes the trim time r+r any parts, and finaly the materials on top they dont actualy cost that much but they always make out its very exspensive (its the same stuff thats on the space shuttle from nasa honest!) over £100 then yours is the broom yellow not the easiest to match (fades) good luck Ant!

Re: coupe paintwork

I seriously feel for those whose car has been willingfully damaged. The sad thing is, unless we see someone doing it to our cars, there's no one we can really vent our anger/frustration on. I've had my previous car keyed on the side of the bonnet so I know what you all are going through..
