Discussion
Just noticed my cars been
ing keyed all the way down the passenger side. Need to work out if it happened before yeaterdays run or last night, I'm sure I would have noticed it yesterday but I'd be grateful for any high res images of the passenger side of the car to be emailed to me.

Sorry to hear that Christian.
I didn't take any photo's yesterday but I'm pretty sure it wasn't done prior to the start.
I was parked up at the start, warming the engine, as you lined up & waited to launch- so had a good look at your pax side.
i did notice a "flat spot" in the paintwork near your nearside rear wheel arch, but deffo not keyed all the way down.
hope that helps

I looked closely at the passenger side just before you started the run and the only bit of damage was the lighter fuel marks next to petrol cap.
There was definitely NO score marks at that time.
Sounds like someone is targeting your car, and its happened overnight.
Sorry to hear about that.
Mr Bomb.

B*&^%$ts. Sorry to hear this, SP......
As you know, I had a good look at the lighter fuel marks. That was all the damage that was there.
I must admit, I agree with Bomb. Sound like someone is targeting your car. Have any others been damaged where you park it overnight? Are you parking in a different place, maybe some else consideres it thiers. Have you shouted at any kids/chavs/etc in the area lately?
The lighter fuel marks would have just rubbed off as i Showed you, but a good key job will require the side to be resprayed due to the metallic paint.
I know that they probably won't do anything, but report it to the police. It gives you an incedent No. and if it continues you're better of legally in the long run.
....and at the risk of repeating thoughts from another thread, if all else fails.......

Christian, It may be worth giving "Chips Away" a ring, they tend to deal with more localised repairs rather then whole panel resprays, if the b*stards have managed to get right though to the bare metal do it sooner rather then later, as if any rust forms chips away won't have anything to do with it! It seams a better option then painting half of your car! Worth a try.

I know who did the burn mark, saw him today and he wouldn't come anywhere near me and he knows whats going to happen if I get near him. And that happened in Gosforth on Friday night.Very confused about the key mark, the car was parked in my street last night and we've never had vandalism and stuff round here. Thing is I know all my neighbours and haven't pissed anyone off AFAIK recently. It wasn't even parked outside for long, got home from the run at about 7, was out in my car from about 12AM-3AM (don't ask...), then noticed the mark when I was out this morning at about 11AM

I think most of it may Scratch X/clay bar out (or at least look better), the deepest bits are on the front wing which I'm not sure about.
Most of my friends know now and are seeing if they can find who did it, and as one said, "when I find them I'll key his

Thanks for the offer Rich but snowed under at the moment with work and sorting out uni stuff so won't have time to look at it till sunday I think. Might drop you an email though if I can't sort it myself 
No problem matey. Im away all weekend at a show but back late sunday night so anytime after that. Clay wont touch it as it has virtually no abrasive quality. ScratchX might have some effect but is only really meant for more minor marks 

If you dont have any joy give me a shout, can't promise to fix it but can certainly point you in the right direction
