So my BMW M3 got keyed... where should I take it?
 

For new paint, should I go to the dealer or a local paint/body shop? Don't wanna get ripped off

assholes ruined the entire side of the car from the wheel to the taillights :(

shit that sucks.... Get one of these:

take it to your dealer as they will have an exact match for the paint it may cost a little more but it will be worth it, If you take it to a local paint/body shop they may not have exact colour

wtf i dont get why people do that shit
for real

yea.. if you like the car.. take it to the dealer..

its cuz tical sleeps with hella girls that have boyfriends ;x

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

stupid fucks these days...sorry to hear that bro

That really sucks! :1orglaugh

yeah it sucks :(

buncha assholes! thanks guys i'll call the dealership up now

That sucks, do u know who it was? take it to your local paint shop, dealer will charge way to much.

Not very pleasant...

That sucks. Some people are just fucking idiots... :mad:

even tho a local shop can get the exact paint to match your car using the vin #, I would still suggest taking to the dealer. When summer kicks in and the new paint starts chipping, you wont get a cent out of a local shop.

That sucks man, Take it to the dealer if you want the job done right, Itll cost more but itll be done right.

hahahahahaha rich?
(no racial slur intended )

what kind of an area do you live in where people do shit like that?

i live in a nice area, my cars are always in my garage... but i went to a shopping mall in a not so great area and it happened in the parking lot... fuckers!

damn that sucks :(

Unless its free from your insurance, it's a waste of money. It's gonna get scratched at some point or another. My car is covered with em and it doesn't both me at all. Mainly because I'm inside it more than I am outside looking at it.

tical stole someone elses parking space

Don't drive a wanker mobile and you wont get your car keyed :2 cents:

Nazi-sled's deserve to get keyed :1orglaugh

Goto the dealer or an authorized shop, only if its on a lease.


What happens is when you give it in at the end of the term, a lot of times you the dealer can spot a bad paint job, and BMW refers to it as "Orange Peel" then they want you to cover a new coat of paint by an authorized dealer.

Also if you take it to an authorized dealer the work is guaranteed, you show them the paper and they can't hassle you about the "Orange Peel" as their own guys did it.

I think the price difference when that happened to me was 1K at the dealer, vs 250$ at my friends shop :)

I chose my friends, lol - but let me tell you that was the start of the end for the car.

ouch that sucks man :-/

that fucking blowsss

Fucking Haters. If you plan on keeping it for a while and not trading it in, go to the dealer. If you are going to trade it in, go el cheapo

Shopping at Meadows Mall again?

Sorry to hear that man. I'd take it to a dealer.

Jealous punks..that sucks..the dealership will make it like new

Main reason I didn't get a bmw earlier this year - statistically they are the most vandalised car.

That blows nonetheless








:(

Man that blows, fucking wimps.

Sorry to hear, take it to a known body shop in your area.

hahaha that's where it happened! on sunday too

Dealership will RAPE you. I had a bodyshop paint my 3, and it came out OEM. The bodyshop will take the paint # from your chassis and get it mixed to match.

looks like its gonna cost me more than my insurance deductable, so i'll just go through the dealership

what fun

go to the dealer and plan on getting ass raped

shit that sucks.. sorry to hear

Make sure that you take a photo of the damage before, for the insurance or in case those guys get caught or anything.

I never understood how can be US cities splitted into so many different good/bad areas.

sorry to hear that man, definately bring to dealership, have it done by someone who works on bmws, not someone taking a guess to the color.

i hate jelous mo fo's

Oh my, why are some people so dumb these days?

cam is pretty dirty... i know my car is, i'm not washing that shit... i'll let the dealership do that

but this is what it looks like, fuckers!
