OH yeah the whole panel and even maybe more , plus clear coat , and only then you will know/see if it will be a perfect mach

So filler and touch up or whole panel respray?

This panel is connected to roof? Would they respray the whole car?

I really want to minimize the amount of non-Factory paint.

So you were at a soccer game with lot's of parents and kids carrying coolers, chairs, and other crap? Not saying you shouldn't be upset by any means but maybe it wasn't someone trying to "key" your car.

They will have to spray the whole panel not the whole car.

Where in VA are you?

I have to agree, it looks like something dropped on it more so than someone keying it.

This, I think something was dropped on it by accident. Look how straight and symetrical the two vertical lines are. Still suck though because you know whoever did it KNOWS they did it. Did you see another vehicle parked next to you at any point? Maybe it was another parent you can have a nice talk with at the next soccer game.

caverman · 05-01-2011, 02:37 PM

LOL....dude that's more than just keyed. Bastards!

That looks like someone intentionally hit it with something. Looks like it's also slightly dented. You'll have to have it fixed at a body shop.

A few months back I had a garage door guy drop a crow bar on my quarter panel. My scratches werent as bad as yours but still they had to repaint the whole quarter panel and rear bumper. Cost me right at $900. They have to take out the rear quarter panel window which means all that interior right there has to come off. Good thing is if it's done right you'll never know once it's done.

Upon inspection, I think you guys might be right, its not the typical slash of a key. It looks like something heavy that took out the paint down to the metal, like a gauge. So What would you recommend, filler, primer, paint, clearcoat? Or will they have to repaint the whole back and roof of the car. This is so frustrating, I have less than 600 miles on that car. Would you use insurance or pay it out of pocket?

LowKeyHp · 05-01-2011, 06:23 PM

BTW: Thanks to all you guys, the angry is starting to subside, now I just want it fixed. I am in Fairfax.

Use the insurance. That's why you pay for it. It'll be covered under your comprehensive, so it won't affect your rates.
