Unhappy Keyed Door! :(

Some bar steward keyed my car at the weekend - most of it should polish out, but there's about an inch that's gone through to the metal on the passenger door.

Is it a case of getting the whole door resprayed or is there something else I can do?

Any advice appreciated.

sorry to hear it mate

mine was keyed on the wing and front and back doors last week, my only option is a respray of the side of the car

I hope you manage to polish it out or touch it up suitably otherwise it will be a panel respray. Chaps away apparently have some magic methods, but they wanted more to sort mine out than a body shop wanted for a respray of the side

B@stards, they should have their faces keyed, everylast one of them, and then have the wound resprayed with some nice metallic paint and laquer, that would teach them

Try 1 of the mobile dent repair people, Dent Master or somebody like that. They will usually just paint the scratch and as little of the panel as possible rather than the whole panel. Guy quoted me £120 to repair a 2 foot long key scratch on my front wing. Not had it done yet cuz I keep spendin the money on tuning

Think it might be a good excuse to get some graphics on the side of the car.

Anybody know where I'd get a big subaru logo for each side of the car?
