So after only 9 days of ownership the vandalism has started. Someone keyed my drivers door and front driver panel/quarter panel. Will be taking it to a few reputable shops, but am curious as to what some of the better brands of paint are? Any advice is helpful!

That fucking sucks:(

I know a few years back Sickens (I think that's how it's spelled) was one of the better brands of paint. PPG is also good stuff.

Sikkens. Sorry about this incident. I agree with John Travolta's comment in Pulp Fiction about messing with a man's car.

When I was just out of high school someone I knew (not a friend just someone I knew) was bragging to me and some other people about keying a ramdom Ferrari. I (and a few others) told him he was a fucking asshole for doing so.....

I had someone key one of my Supras, luckily it was so light it buffed out. I have no clue who did it, it was just at a parking lot in a mall.

When I was 13 I might think that type of shit was cool.

If I saw my 13 year old self now I would whoop his ass.


At least you can still drive it around, theres a lady by me who had her car spray painted with just horrible racist shit and yet she still drives it around...its really odd.

My friends supra just got keyed a few months ago...So many people are just Fu**ed up! Sorry to hear about your supra man...

I think it's just LOSERS who can't afford one that are just jealous and wish that they did..

yea thats effed up, I seriously hate the kind of people who will mess with your car/stuff/you because they are jealous of what you have or are just plain assholes. My mom told me that her friend's son was beat up back in the day for driving a corvette. He was asian and she said a group of black guys harassed him n asked him how he got the money to afford the corvette and why was he driving it n beat him up n tried to jack him at a gas station. jacked up stuff...

Thats why I drive a POS. Nobody will think twice to mess with it much less jack/steal/break into it.

Dupont, PPG, Sikkens, BASF and if u are baller, House of Kolors

Very sorry to hear about it, and I hope the damage isn't as bad as it appears. Much like Ken and John Travolta in Pulp Fiction mentioned, you don't EVER mess with a man's car...no matter what kind of car it is, that's just off limits.

Yea getting keyed sucks. I had my old qx4 keyed. I had my supra spit on as I was driving away from a gas station because I wouldn't fill up some broke illegals car with gas with my credit card. These people that f' peoples cars up are the low of the low.

Very sorry to hear about your car getting keyd. People are fucking idiots.... And the sad thing is...no matter what you do, there will always be that dumbass or that group of deuchebags that for some motherfucking reason feel as though they have the right to fuck with other people's shit.

I've ran into dumb people, I almost had my car stolen in front of a Quik trip (a gas station). In my 1991 300zx tt, I also wouldn't race someone in there civic I respectfully declined his friend said i was talking shit they tried to race me I was with acouple of friends one of my friends was on a bike and he practically did a stoppy trying to avoid wrecking when they cut him off to tail me. I wish I was old enough to carry a gun :)

Ya when I was in highschool I had my car keyed.. It was just a neon but it looked fairly nice (dont hate on the neon.. It was my first car and I loved it)..

Some idiot in my school who didn't like me (apparently I dated his ex or something) did a real number on my rear 1/4 panal..

If something like this happened in my supra I would cry!

I had an ex-chick key one of my old MKIV's right in front of me... I approached her and grabbed her by the hair "cave man style" and proceeded to drag her about 20yards by her hair.

I do not regret it one bit but quite sure she does.

Not that I own any exotic, or any car much worth keying, but I have spent countless (and thankful) miles behind the wheel of a plethora of exotics and it never ceases to amaze me how much people HATE on you for NO good reason. People just pull up beside you and talk shit to you. :lol: I was driving a C6 Z06 the other day, not even something crazy, it was yellow granted, but two guys pull up beside me in a 350Z and call me a douche bag :lol: I was pulling out of a parking lot at a slow speed with no radio on and the windows down!

I cant count the times just on an average trip in any exotic people pull up and ask how my dad's dick tastes, how big of a ****** I am, how they will mop the street with their car, etc. Most of my experiences are in Lamborghinis, but I have had it in even in rather low key exotics like a DB9 or CGT. Its nuts. I wont even start on what its like driving a Prowler. :faint:

But here is the secret, its just the people who use cars as a source of reflection of what they hope they are. It's the same rationale why girls talk crap on your insanely hot knock out girl when she shuts the room up when you both stroll in. Call it a modern day take on the alpha male/female. Back in the early days maybe it was size and defense abilties, now its money. A lot of guys use cars as their proverbally chest beating. If you are "better" then you are a threat. Same with hot girls - the hottest girls score the "best" guys.

Eh, I'm on a tangent. The main take away is people are idiots. Drive a nice car and its bound to happen. Unfortunately.

Sorry to hear that though. Does insurance cover that?

The only answer if they are not a kid would be jealousy.
I cant think of any other reason why anyone would do that.
Nothing else makes sense.
Its quite possible that they feel inferior inside and simply want to take it out on someone with what they wish they had.

I cant think of any other reason as ive never understood keying someones car.
(other than a female wanting revenge)

Ive never had it in my Supra but on thanksgiving eve some drunk asshole smashed my windshield of my daily beater. I can't stand people who do that crap. I'm not doing anything to anyone so why hate on my stuff?
