Sorry to see such damage to your car 8A8Y 8. It's hard to imagine what kind of sick person could do such a thing.

Man, you must have pissed off somebody....Do you have a recent ex-girlfriend that you cheated on? This person who is doing this knows you!

I trust you are joking... otherwise I'd have no alternative but to think you were a ******** of the first degree...

Sounds like you need stealth. Once some one has done this they think they can do it again and get away with it. I would set up in another car with a paint gun and give it a week...

Oh man - just read this post - this is awful. And I thought the chip I got yesterday on my front fender from some jerk opening their door at the local Westfields carpark was bad. All the best with the repairs.

rx8eem if he wanted to re spray the car he would... No need for insurence mate.. Your not exactly poor to buy a 67+K car.

So get out of your hole and smell the fresh air..

That has got to be the lowest act someone can do to someone elses car. When I got my 8 within the first week I parked it at a shopping centre and some low life stuffed empty chip packets under the door handles. I was worried about getting scratches from that and then to see yours....
All the best with the repairs

Phil,

This is the 1st time i've been online in a long time

a few things

1) i still owe you that stuff u let us borrow on the drive, that sunday, i will come by shortly
2) wtf....do you have any idea who that f#@!# is.... man i think he enjoys pissing you off, at your expense, thats just not on!
3) let me know if I can help, you have my details.
4) look im not going to abuse anyone, but to the person that posted the "he did it himself"comment..... i really dont think thats the case.....who goes and puts minor scratches all over their car 4 insurance..... maybe dump it in a river then consider it..... phil doesnt have the time. money or energy to waste.

- daz
