My Brand New Evo gets keyed. Looking for local shops to help.

Hi there,
This is my first post on the forum because i just recently got my evo. The other day i was just chilling late at a friends house and came home late. The next morning i walk out to my car and to my suprise i had a nice racing stripe on the side of my car and trunk. The feeling you feel when someone eff's up your dream car and you have to pay for it is quite unsettling. The main reason i am posting here is to see if anybody has a black evo Mr trunk for sale or if anybody's has any ideas on how i can fix the problem, or knows a shop local to Chino, CA that does good paint work on evo's. Any Help would be greatly Appreciated.

P.S. i tried the touch up paint and its on there right now. Looks a little better. if you know a touch up paint that would work in this situation please let me know as well.

-Thx
-Mike

Have a shop fix it, dont do it yourself unless you have experience doing this task. Are you going to report it to insurance? Invest in a .45 or at least a dog.

Well at lease you don't have people calling you a secret douche bag like I did when I posted my thread about my car being vandalized.

I really sucks that your pride and joy gets messed with by some jealous idiot. If you have insurance I think it's just better to report it. Well for me, because it wasn't my fault and it's a crime or something like that. My insurance rate didn't go up.

OUCH! I feel for ya.....
Did you use you a touch up pen? they tend to suck, the best thing wold be to get it repainted, if you use the end of a match (match book not wooden obviously) as a miniture paint brush it works excellent

Dude, sorry to hear....I hate jealous douche bags who have to mess something up that someone else worked hard for just because they don't have it themselves.
