Default Keyed W/pics custom color poll

my car was keyed i started a thread a while back in the body section and the few responses asked for pics. i figured id post here to get more responses on my poll. i want to do a different color b/c the whole car needs to be repainted. i am open to any suggestions but will most likely do a light silver to keep cost down.. right now im thinking e46m3 silver i like the metal flake alot. i am open to true custom colors but think it might be a good idea to stay with a oem color of some kind
thanks for looking










in the post these pics kinda suck ill take some in better light tomorrow.

I gave you the F Silver response, but really can't tell you what color is best for you, that's all preference. I had to hit that though just 'cause there is way too much silver out there.

And damn!!! You didn't just get keyed, that is just pure malice up and down your car. I hope you find out who did that, that's too brutal to be random IMO.

What about that charcoal metallic that came on the IS300? Pretty nice color if you ask me.

Someone really doesn't like you! Anyone who knows me wouldn't try that **** on me because they know I would go temporarly insane and kill them on the spot.

Sorry to hear about your car though.

Angry ridiculous

if you noticed that all at once, meaning the same person keyed your car, its obviously personal. i've never seen someone's hood keyed before. that sucks. and if you want to keep costs down, obviously go with your silver.

Was every panel keyed? back too? and front end? I hope you are aware that insurence will only paint the damaged panels.. so if you forgot a panel you better out out there and get it done!

I stop spending my time deciding what color to paint it and hunt that phucker down! G.D....if I ever caught a m***er f***er doin' this to my car, I'd have to get the door jams painted from slamming his head in the door so many times....sorry dude I had a bad day.

Moon Rock Metallic Silver

I wouldn't repaint until I have it sorted out why it got keyed... that looks like it was personal, and no point in having it repainted all nice only to have it keyed again.
