TL-s get scratched...
Today I went to boxing day shopping and found out my car get scratched by some Fxxking people in the parking lot......
PS. That parking lot has no security camera, anyone can enter there and play around...

left rear door

tail of left rear door

left front side closed to rim

Hood

Right side

other right side

the most dmged scratched

other one (not vertical one, that is dirt)

Right side door overview...
The dmg is not so serious but it still have to spend my time to fix it...
Anywayz, Can I get the insurance company to cover this? Does it need to be repaint the whole? (Full coverage)
Let me know, my insurance company is "the co-operators" (Canada)
Cuz today the Acura doesnt open so I have to wait until tomorrow to get them to quote the repaint...
CURSED THOSE MOTHER FXXKERS!!!

sorry brother....but there's alot of "A-Holes" out there!.....I park way back from everyone , even if it's across to the parking lot or else where, MY OLD LADY BITCH'S BECAUSE SHE HAS TO HOOF IT WITH ME! .....OH WELL! it'll keep it for the most part scratch & dent free
Man i get freaking crazy seeing that. Someone keyed my g/f's Lexus GS just one week after she bought it. It just get me mad trying to think of a reason why anyone would do it. I swore to myself if i see anyone trying to key someone else car, i'll jump that motherf**ker and break the very hand that did it.
I hope that makes you feel a little better

Sorry to see something like this happened to your car, the same thing happened to my 04 TL a couple years ago at West Ed. Mall. My driverside back door and fender got scratched, I ended up using some scratch-x and a bunch of waxing and polishing, but you can still see it to this day. Hopefully I'll see ya around, congrats on one of the only Type S' in the city.

Well I went to the place called Auto Detail today in downtown behind the Safeway and they may be able to do the work but it is never be the same...how did you do with the scartch?

You should definatly talk to your insurance first. How deep is the scratches? try to run through with your finger nail and see how deep it is. If its not too deep then light wet sanding and buffing should do the trick..
Actually the parking lots I parked was not safe, no security, no camera, no check...everyone can access it...I will find the underground parking near my house, it is worth rather than parking behind and keep letting people to screw my car. I reported to the police and talked to my insurance company, unfortunely it is not included in my policy, but they still can cover with rising my insurance rate...
...GODDAMN...I hate those people...the scratches werent very deep, light wet sanding? could you provide details?
Scratch Repair
For scratches like that the best way to fix them is to sand smooth, re-paint, and re-clear. You can do this yourself out of spray cans and use the DuPont Clearcoat Blender (paintworldinc.com) to make the repair invisable. The blender especially comes in handy when you're not painting whole panels. The custom matched automotive paint is the EXACT same stuff that a bodyshop would use on your car if they repaired it. The only difference is that it's in spray cans for the Do-It-Yourselfer. At the very least, spending $50 on a can of custom paint, clear, and blender, is better than spending $600+ for a bodyshop to do it when you could have done it yourself.

Sorry to hear that. I just bought an 06 anthracite TL last month, then two weeks later my front emblem got stolen, so i had to replace the whole middle grill, because the middle grill part also was broken, i was mad!!!!!!So i feel your pain.
i know its usually used most for convertibles and motorcycle...but maybe you can think about getting an aftermarket alarm system with a proximity sensor....
because trust me, if someone was around and these kids did this...either they wouldn't bother with your car or it would draw some big attention
(even though most of the time, the average citizen would mind there own business)

i have a black tls with a scratch goes from the drivers side door to the gas lid i tried to do the touch up paint its hard since the paint is metalic it somthing you would be better of getting repainted or leaving it as is until something happens to the car and have insurance fix it.
sorry to hear about the scratch.
jealous people....why can't they just work harder and get a tl of their own.
i feel your pain man, especially on a brand new tl-s.
i went bosing day shopping too, and rather risking my baby, i drove my dads' 90 integra.
no worries, cause its all scratched up and rusted up and all.
ask around for a good bodyshop, you don't want to repaint it with a half ass job.
