that is absolutly foul. I can't believe someone would do that in such a way, I mean absolute assbandit.
So you can't claim against him as he is already criminally charged? (ever get the impression the law protects little scotes like this at times?).
Mettailic paints are near impossible to match never mind blend. It would be a full car respray, which may not be exactly (Down to the particle) accurate, but at least you won't tell which bits are which as everything is the same.
I know what I would do in this instance, and yes it would involve me talking the law into my hands.

My mate had something like this last year, his sister visited, who has lived in germany (Work reasons) for last few months, and she has a new (2005) BMW 535d estate, left it parked up outside house (german plates etc) in the nicest part of sunderland there is, they were talking, watching tv whatever and some scrote petrol bombed the thing, by the time fire brigade got there there was nothing left of cabin, just parts of front bumper and three wheels were still good. Never heard of anything as malicous as that ever, and this happened just october/november last year! Thats not it neither, insurance didn't cover her against fire and theft (Despite being the german equivilant of fully comp) in other countries only third party, so she has been screwed over, police haven't yet 'pursued' their investigation.
Really hope you can get some sort of privatly sourced claim in on this gett, and gets in some way resolved.
