That's what happens when you do burnouts in Yonkers.

is your H key messed up or did you lose the spelling B trying to spell "tHat?" lol

Back to point- Sucks that you got your car keyed, but I'm afraid you will have to have the whole thing painted. I was hit and run and I had to repaint my whole driver's side quarter panel

Keyed - Repair

There are mobile paint detailers who can fix this deep scratch and match the paint for as little as $125.00. This is exactly what happened to my jet black 325i, and it now looks as good as new. You don't have to go to an expensive paint & body shop.

Please leave this website. Seriously... your car gets scratched and you have to post on the internet to find out what to do about it? You get the scratch fixed, guy. Really I have started reading your posts just to feel better about myself, and yes, I realize I'm coming across like an ass but really, did you really need to ask this question? Do you really not know what to do?

That was a helpful response. This is the detailing section, this is where people come to get help/suggestion on any problems they have with their cars paint. If you don't like his posts just hit the ignore button, and you'll never have to see them again.


Unfortunately OP, since the scratch is down to the metal you're going to need a repaint to fix it 100%. It could possibly be filled in and wet sanded, but it won't look as good as original, if you could post some pics you might get more advice.
