I went out last nite to celebrate my Brothers Birthday and parked in The Kodak Theatre on Hollywood / highland. Came back found this
I felt very violated . Its worse than a hit and run since this was intentional. Anyone have any suggestions on hiding it. Its about 10-12 inches. I know it could have been worse. The Loser went on a rampage and keyed cars in his/her path. The SUV next to me had one half the length of the vehicle. :thumbsdown:

Ouch... thats the bad side of living in LA area... too much worries. :thumbsdown: Anyways how deep is the scratch, you might be able to buff it out if its not too deep. if you can take a pic closer to the car using macro.

It seems like it scratched to the base coat. Im gonna try filling it with a grey marker or grey type of wax , or maybe scratch x then buff it out.
