I hope Orange/Black looks good. I can't wait to go home and start photoshopping that picture to find a nice two-tone combination.

When my truck got keyed, the body shop ended up needing to strip down the entire truck and start over from scratch. Keep in mind that every single panel on the vehicle had deep key marks down to the bare metal though. Don't know if they would need to do this to yours or not. Just make sure that you go to a reputable (sp?) body shop and let them take care of it. If they do good work, you will never know those marks were there when they are done. Good luck.

Thats such a nice color what a shame. As said before depending on the depth of the scratch itself it may have to be sanded completely out and it would be very expensive.

I am going to a well known shop in the Cincinnati area to have this done. They did all my body work on my 92 civic and I loved the way they did everything. This kid's going to hate that he ever messed with my car.

If you know his name, call the cops on him. If there were no punches thrown, you're totally in the right and he can say hello to community service!

I got a feeling if I go orange/black I'll get the "Bandwagen-Hopper of the Year Award" if Bengals do well. Even though its my home team and I have loved them since day 1.

just got estimates done and....

Nolands - $1200 to just fix and repaint orange or $1500 to fix and two-tone black

Dons - $110 to just fix and repaint orange or $1700 to fix and two-tone black

I will probably pay the additional $200 to have Don's do it because they had a beautiful 64.5 Mustang being painted and they had everything taped and removed...

look at the bright side, its his insurance that pays for it if he fesses up (so how'd it go with the cops?)

what you do is get the carbon hood in the estimate complete with the freight shipping then the thr trunk too if you want and get the shop to say they both need replaced then make the SOB pay for all of it $$$ first the revenge.
