Default New black-on-black s2k keyed!

With two Sterling 827s, both keyed in the first two weeks of ownership, behind me, I thought my luck would change with my S. But last night, it got keyed over 2 panels, right through to the white ground coat. Looks really f....ed on a black car--3 scratches, each about 5 inches long. Anyone know what best to do? Repaint the entire door and rear fender? The scratches are too deep for Liquid Glass precleaner and polish. Airbrush and buff? It's just 3 months old!

I'm not clear on insurance in Germany ;but here I would turn it in on your insurance and have the offending panel repainted.

Someone doesn't like you man! If this happened to me I would be livid!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately, my German insurance policy has a 1,000 euro deductible, so it probably won't make sense to turn it in 9 . The first Sterling I owned was in Los Angeles, the second in D

Like a knife twisting in my gut. What kind of jealous Jack Ass would pull a stunt like that? As a fellow Black owner Dude, I feel for ya.

Do you think the same person keyed all three of your cars?

If so, buy a new car and set a trap, then cut their hands off when you catch them in the act.
