Ceejay29 Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 Hi Guys, Unfortunately my partners Cooper S was keyed across two panels Friday, this is happening to people far too often, the zed was parked opposite......rather worried about that now! Any ideas on a rough cost to repair? Pictures below Thanks Quote
DoogyRev Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 honestly, whats wrong with people these day Sorry to hear this has happened to you As for repairs, it will probably be a couple of hundred to get that fixed Quote
Will370z Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 Ouch that really sucks. Looks like its gone into the rear wing aswell. Id imagine they would therefore need to respray 2 panels then lacquer into the rear bumper and front wing. Mine was a small key scratch over the back wing rear bumper but paid a premium to get it done properly with the correct paint. Hope you get it sorted. I would imagine you would be looking at anywhere from 250-400 to fix it but im not expert. Good uck. Quote
Shaun1982 Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 Sorry about the damage matey. Not sure if it applies to BMW blacks too but at work on our audi's & ford's black is edge to edge. No need to blend into panels either side. 1 Quote

Ceejay29 Posted February 17, 2013 Author Posted February 17, 2013 Certainly is a nasty one! Had a feeling we may be facing a hefty invoice Thanks Quote

WhackyWill Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 The word scum is too good for these vermin low life pieces of SH1T... Had my black X5 keyed on both sides, folowing week my sons Golf was keyed on the bonnet total for both cars £340...!! Absolute filthy ass ho1es...!!.. :rant: Quote
rtbiscuit Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 Proper bodyshop job, at least £150 per panel, or give chipsaway a buzz, or any good smart repairer, and you'll be looking at half the cost Quote
Keyser Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 Un F'ing believable so many times latley have we seen these posts, words fail me. Sorry for your partner mate - hope you get it sorted. Quote
Humpy Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 Not another one, what is it with these mindless idiots! I really do hope you get this fixed quickly and as cheaply as possible. Quote
spursmaddave Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 As I said in the last thread I fear it will only get worse as those with not a lot have even less and get jealous of anyone who has anything nice. Add to that a total lack of respect for anyone that actually works and can afford a nice car and you get resentment and hatred too... Just be thankful it was the car and not a mugging or burglary Quote
Ceejay29 Posted February 17, 2013 Author Posted February 17, 2013 Thanks for all the feedback guys, should enable me to get a few quotes and judge them accordingly Quote
deankenny Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 This really does make me rage inside!!! I really feel for you Keep us up to date with costs of repair and who repaired it etc Quote
gsexr Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 My partners car was keyed down three panels and it cost about £450 Quote
HEADPHONES Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 If caught the criminals should be punished to the same degree as someone mugging you of £400 Quote
kyte350 Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Sorry to here about this and I had the same done to my subaru impreza 2 years ago, it was keyed from front wing to back quater and same with my misses impreza I hate it when I see other people have the same thing happen to them as I know how it feels and I'm now afraid to leave a car in my street even in the day Lets hope that karma will get them back in the end Quote
Stutopia Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Gutted for you mate. They should just be killed. No trial, no jury, straight to execution. I fear this every single night with the wastoids and dickheads round here. If you can't have something beautiful, damage something beautiful of someone else's. Mindless. Is key proof paint the future? http://www.alsacorp.com/products/softtouch/softtouch.htm Quote
AliveBoy Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 I'm a bit late to the thread. But where are you based? I know a guy who does smart repair and he's really good. He is used by most of the main dealers around Northampton, if you'd like I can give you his details. Quote
rabbitstew Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Gutted for you mate. They should just be killed. No trial, no jury, straight to execution. I think they should be made to work for free for life so at least we get something back of out them. Quote
WhackyWill Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Sorry to hear that mate. Complete "scum" should be castrated.. :thumbdown: Quote
