So while I was cleaning my car today, I noticed that my car was keyed on the bonnet. Not as bad to the metal, but was quite deep. I've only had my car for less than a month and it's been keyed. I feel the fire growing inside me.

Can someone take a look at the pictures and tell me if I can get them out or would I be having a rage everytime I look at my bonnet?

So many retarded kunce nowadays.

My dad's car got keyed recently too, though he drives a Prado.

I understand why jelly haters would key a skyline, but a prado? Dafuq??

They must be too bored. Getting cameras in car and CCTV for my house now. have had enough of this bs.

After rectifying the bonnet, do you have a fully enclosed garage?

Yeah I do, but it's being used as storage at the moment. Won't be cleared until another year. Currently just parking it out on my front yard since its concreted. Getting new slat fence soon so it should be more discreet.

ditch the shite out of the garage and get your car in there...that is their purpose :(

does suck man...piss off some neighbours? or did this not happen at home?

I don't think my neighbors are like that. my neighbors are both old and don't think there the type going around keying cars. Although there is these guys across my house that seems to look as if they work on cars but I highly doubt it was them. I use my car as a daily A-B and could of happen anyware. Have been parking it at Citigate in Haymarket which tends to be full of uni students.

Probably unprovoked, had my car egged within the first 24 hours of owning it lol.

Most likely unprovoked. Although one person did pop in my mind that might have of done this (same immature rat that egged my house twice from school). He's always been very competitive with me during high school days about the things we'd do, girls we talk to and what we have. I know he was jelly when he found out from my mate that i was getting a R34. But this goes way back into 2009. Although he did egg my house year and half after the immature rat.

hey man, depending on your location there are some small companies that specialise in this sort of repair, small dings/deep scratches ect. Also turtle do a wash and was in about 5 colours they come with a crayon like pen that is suppose to blend in and hide these marks. http://ak.buy.com/PI/0/500/226688663.jpg http://icedotcomexpr...lor%20magic.jpg

I got my R33 S2 on thursday night by saturday night already had been hit i was lucky enough to be able to buff it out.

Good luck

These specialists have any specific name?

Thanks Pat but those guys are in QLD. I'm in Sydney. I found some guys who do paint repairs via Google by searching "paint repairs" after visiting that site. Will give them a try tomorrow.

    • I hope it's actually possible. This is a write off in insurance world.
    • Yup. 2-way with shallow ramp angles. Still works.
    • That was the first session so not a lot to take from the day. It was low 20s ambient and the coolant had got to 110 (and obviously had some pressure!) so that still needs to be addressed. I haven't downloaded the data yet but will. I had refilled the auto trans with Redline DT6 because it claimed the best viscosity I could find at 100o. It wasn't really long enough to get a good feel for that; while the trans got to 100o in the session it still wasn't shifting crisply as I hoped. I think I'll try a few more sessions before judging. No steering motor overheat but I'd hope not in only 1 session! But finally the suspension; it was night and day over the standard stuff and the car was a couple of seconds quicker on the same crappy tyres, which is a huge difference. I'll stick with that and get some sway bars and a mechanical diff sorted too and see how that all goes together
    • I guess it’s partially a compromise of how my car is used, wanting to be able to switch from drift to grip with track side on-car adjustment. Also partially with the way the knuckles are set there is more static camber but less dynamic camber gain. 
    • OK, so update from the track day on Friday It was a classic "an unfortunate series of events'. There were a few cars around and when i checked my mirror coming out of the fish hook I notice some smoke from the rear of mine. Looked again and it was getting much worse, I figured I'd blown a turbo or something to got off it and pulled off the racing line. However.... since it is a left hairpin into a right kink, I was on the inside of the next corner. There was a car passing me on the left and a big drop off over the ripple strip on the right......and someone had knocked the witch's hat that was on the apex about 1m onto the track. So, between those 3, I decided to mow down the cone and not damage my car/the other car. Right choice, but surprising result.  The car decided the cone was a small pedestrian so it blew the rear bonnet hinges up to protect their head in the upcoming person to car impact....I didn't see that coming and like an airbag deployment it happened super fast. Straight into the pits from there, everything was driving fine but it became clear it was a coolant leak not smoke, it was billowing up onto the windscreen. Onto the trailer and home. I'll do a separate thread about the repair (once I work out what it is ), but the immediate problem was the bonnet wouldn't open because the front was pinched onto the front bar and would not release. Ultimately we unbolted the hinge from the bonnet, pulled it back a little and it released from the front OK. "There's your problem", the top radiator hose had popped off at the radiator.
