Yea seriously... If I were you, I'd probably consider not even driving my S to the school anymore. I mean there's no guarantee it won't keyed again. Wow seriously though... these people who just vandalize should be hanged.

 

in most cases $500 is the deductible for collision. you could ask your insurance company what the deductible is for vandalism. in any case, i'm not trying to hella say claim it on insurance or anything but IMO if you brought it to your honda dealership they probably quoted you for a repaint of JUST the rear quarter panel. in which case, if you are as anal as you have described, you would be very pissed to find that there would be a subtle difference in paint between the rear quarter panel and the rest of your car. the point i'm trying to get at is that your paint needs to be blended in so it doesnt look different from the rest of the car. depending on where you are it can run about $700-1000 for the work (i got my door keyed, the estimate was about $750)
i mean, a vandalism doesnt count as a point on your driving record (it doesnt raise your insurance) so why not claim it through your insurance and get quoted from one of their body shops? you probably could cash out your claim too if you want and use that money to buy whatever part you're looking at.
just my $0.02 in.
also, if you brought it to your honda dealer, unless they have a body shop in their dealership, they're probably outsourcing it to a body shop they have a contract with.

sorry, i know its kinda long, but i just wanna share what i know from my experience
