Hopefully the person doesn't come back and key me again.

90% chance someone that knows you did this to your car.

Let me tell ya about a bad keying incident...

Several years ago, I started dating a recently divorced woman. I spent a fair amount of time at her house and on three seperate occasions over a couple of weeks, I came out to my Xterra to find scratches on every pannel (doors/hood/hatch/quarter pannels), rear window and exterior mirrors thanks to her 43 year old ex husband. Called it my urban camoflage.

Unfortunately for him, he developed a lawn problem. It seems his grass died in the pattern of a curse word. From what I understand, he even tried calling a lawn service but even that would not get the grass to grow anymore.

No idea who did it. So this isn't an option.

Everything about it is cowardly. Key a car. Leave. Don't stick around to take responsibility for it because you know you'd probably get punked for the money to fix it.

It's just ridiculous that this is happening. I have to park my car in that lot on Mondays and Wednesdays until May. Do I feel safe parking there anymore with assholes like this around? Let me think on that one.

cops assert that even with video,it's difficult to ascertain the "keying"
because it looks like somebody walking along your car,BUT no 'tool"
is seen, so it's absence of malice. tough break,just get it fixed and go forward!

This happened to me not too long okay, I posted about it here as well. Mine was on the opposite side as yours but it was about as long and as deep. The good news is you cannot even tell it was keyed now after it was repainted. The worst part for me was (after the initial shock and anger of course) driving a cruze for three days.

I just recently got keyed too, but since my car is still on campus at school I'm not going to bother getting it fixed until I graduate lol.

If you don't mind me asking, how much does fixing something like this cost? My scratch isn't as deep or as long as yours though.

eXtreme Burrito! · 02-12-2013, 07:18 PM

My estimate was for $1700.

Mostly because it goes from edge of the tail light to about 4 or 5 inches past the passenger side door handle.

Haha I wish this was the case. I'd know whose house to go to to get my money back.
