Angry got keyed!

my car got keyed recently, don't know what to do. I know if i get it repainted its going to have to be the whole quater panel. Should I go through insurance? my deductible is 500.oo ouch. or should I go get it painted somewhere? I'm not down for the touch up paint either cause that **** looks like ***. Will my insurance go up?

This is a major eye sore...

People who key cars should have their hands cut off. It's happened to me twice in the past. I just wish I could catch them in the act.

I'd get an estimate from a decent body shop, it might not be that bad. You'll have to pay one way or the other, up front out of your pocket or a rise in your insurance plus the deductible. Sorry, I feel your pain.

That really sucks, that people would do that to your car.
I think some insurance companies cover vandalism without raising your
rates, or penalizing you. You may want to check with your agent.

+1..

Don't feel left out OP. My brother had key marks on his RX8 that ran from headlight to taillight. And as much as I dislike the RX8, I would never do something like that..it was sickening when I first saw it..

Ouch that sucks, sorry to hear.

A friend of a friend back in high school had an STI and got EVERY panel of the car keyed. Meaning front bumper, hood, both fenders, doors, quarter panels, rear bumper and roof
