ARE YOU SERIOUS?! keyed again!!!!!

My mom came out to help me with some stuff and noticed that my car was keyed again!

Same panel, next to the first keyed location. PISSED OFF
Did the finger nail text and its past the clear coat AGAIN!

You can't own nice things in 626 area. Too many haters.
And no, i didn't park like a douche (I always re-adjust my parking to ensure that people don't door ding me). And I didn't cut anyone off or piss anyone off on the road.....


What do people get from keying someone else's hard work?!

and yes i know my car is super dirty. another reason why i don't get why people keyed it. Not like I was showing off or anything....





UPDATE:
I know MAACO has spot paint services. Has anyone used them before? And about how much would a job like this cost?

Monterey Park, CA (so-cal)

The only place I was at was at Ralph's, work, home. Doubt anyone would do it at work since there's cameras all around...
My neighbors are decent and not mean. So the only place I would think of is Ralph's market.

Well if it's the same spot or near it...and it's repeated. Maybe it's someone that knows you.

I'll be sure to stay clear Ralph's market... Does anyone have experience with the Dupont profusion pen? I'd look into something like that

I'm from 626 and there are tons of nice cars. Probably someone who knows you as mentioned above. Or maybe people saw that the panel was already keyed and thought that you don't really care so they did keyed it. Forgot the name of that theory...

I've had nice cars and visited friends in bad neighborhoods, I haven't had any issues. I would also make the assumption that the same person returned to your car.

What compels someone to do this?

Anyway, easy fix, my friend. Get yourself some Bondo, a silicone flat-blade, and Dr. Colorchip matched in your color.

Fill in the chips, then paint with Dr. Colorchip. Wipe away excess paint with included solution. It'll be unnoticeable and only take a maximum of 30 minutes. If you want to do it professionally, you can sand away the area, color-match your paint, and re-paint it with clearcoat. That's a lot more work, and Dr. Colorchip is well-worth the tradeoff for how little time you spend for such a good outcome.

Thanks for the advice. I think I'd really want a professional to do it as I know I'm not competent with spray paint lol.

At this point, I'm kind of numb. I'm already thinking about trading my car in because its so ugly...

I had a similar issue. But I know the car parked next to me did it in my parking garage. I see my paint on her car. The lady denies it, so I hate all Korean old women. So I used Dr Colorchip to fill it in. Then bought some 1500 and 2500 grit sandpaper along with Megiuar's 105 and 205. Hopefully it turns out well. After filling it in, I'm lazy to do the rest of the work though.

Sucks man. Good luck trying to catch the perp in the act. Seems intentional or that's a huge coincidence.

I've had the biggest vehicles, with the most absurdly douchey owners park a foot from me over the line and have never actually felt compelled to key their car. I'll say something to the owner, give them the death-stare, or leave a 'friendly' note in their window, but I would never harm someone's property. We unfortunately live in a time where people don't understand how to respect people.
Karma is a bitch, and I'm sure the person who did this will eventually pay.

You probably got keyed because you asked your mom for car help.

Somebody overheard.
