Default Some dickhead keyed my car

WTF man. Just WTF. Parked my car on the street right to Prince Charles hospital in Brisbane. After a couple of hours, I found this meter and a half key-scratch right across my left panel (and its my good panel too --> the only panel without any scratches). WTF is wrong with these ppl when they see cars that have obviously cared for and had their owners put money into. What satisfaction does it give em? I don't understand. What makes those fuckhead so happy keying cars knowing that their owners have put a lot of attention into? I don't understand those fuckheads.

In a way I'm kinda glad I wasn't there when he keyed my car. Otherwise I would've done something that I would've regretted doing considering I have a fairly short fuse. But still, WTF man


tried to conceal the scratch with my trusty touch up paint. its still pretty obvious but at least it won't rust now.

sucks really to hear that man.

some people's biasedness about hyundai's still persist in many..

We should install a dome Camera on th headliner to see any culprit's messing our cars up.

Did you get it fixed professionally/DIY or did you just left unrepaired? Thinking of slapping a few decals on it now. What do you think? Just so it won't be too obvious

That really sucks, i'm lucky I never got keyed before, but i had other things happen, but I think they were accidents like coming back to my car with a broken rear tail light. But putting a decal will probably attract more people to key your car.

Yea that's what I thought it would do. Still trying to make the area shine a little bit by buffing it down. So far its looking pretty ok

Sorry to hear that bro. The Evo got keyed once, right outside the shop too. I knew who did it; they keyed "you're a dog" on the driver's side(teenage bogans from a few doors down, they keep talking shit about the jap cars while pointing and whatnot) Since I still had some track damage on that side(smashed the corner of the bar in over Sandown's rumble strips) I got out the marker and wrote "It's STILL faster than a V8" under where they'd keyed then parked it out front, where they couldn't NOT see it.
