pubsmeister,

The little azzholes! Painfully obvious that we need better birth control.

Sorry to hear about the damage to your wheels. If it was me, I would have it repaired the right way.... no touch-up paint. Check with your insurance company, as it should be covered under Comprehensive on your policy. Some years ago, the wife's Mercedes was "keyed" and the Comprehensive covered it.

Sorry to hear about this! Same thing happened to me. I always park waaaaaaaaayyyyyy out in parking lots so no-one is near me. My hood was keyed and my passenger door was scratched. There is also a ding in my front passenger door because someone parked a truck (not a SUV) an actual straight job truck way out right next to my car. There were no other cars anywhere around. I don't know why he had to park right next to my car.

I would agree with stream have a high end detailer take a look at it & see if he can wett sand out the scratches. But from the looks of it you might need a body shop. Try & stear clear from the guys that due bumper reapair at the dealerships because they put on a thin layer of paint & clearcoat & it tends to yellow over time. If you whur local to me i'd say give me a call but good luck with it & i know the feeling..

A dissenting voice here.? I actually plan to park my new e60 in "high-risk" spots right after I get it.? My reasoning: it's going to get dents and scratches eventually; let's get it out of the way so I can enjoy my (cosmetically flawed but great nonetheless) vehicle.

However I know my point of view is somewhat unusual.

Unusual?? This is just pure heresy, lol.........I can see this logic for a nice new pick up truck used for work maybe.....but NOT my E60!!
