Agreed need pics to see how bad the damage is..... on another note it's come to my attention that a lot of us are getting our cars vandalized. Last night I walk out to my car and find some assholes decided they needed to spit all over my car. Sorry for your bad luck.

I will post pictures tomorrow. I was just too mad to take pictures today. Most of it just looks like a scratch in the clear coat. A small part looks a bit deeper.

jelious @$$holes My E36 was keyed a week after I bought it. Hopefully no one touches my E90.

shit bro i am very sorry to hear. depending on the severity(deepness of the scratch)... it can be fixed by a simple Buff/polish, or if it is very serious it may need to be re-painted .

get it checked at a bodyshop or post pics

I think i am going to be able to fix this myself. I tried a light polish and an orange cutting pad. It helped but it needs a little more work. I am going to try a heavier polish and a yellow cutting pad. It will have to wait until the end of the week to get fixed as I don't have any heavier polishes.
