found out my car got keyed while changing wheel locks =(

Theres one (thin) noticable but not very deep, about 3inches long
and then theres another one on the driver's side rear fender(where the gas cap)
same size but longer and part of it took out the paint too, that one is around 2 feet long...

this is my second time some hater vandalize my car.. when will this come to an end?

how much do shops usually charge for keying?? do i have it get the whole hood re-painted or they can do touch up on them without painting the whole part??
thanks really need this info

The exterior add-ons don't really attract people, except for the E9x enthusiast. Your DPEs probably catch people's attention more than anything else.

It's probably the places that you visit... Park far away to avoid crap from happening. If you're going to places where you know crap like this would happen, have your buddies drive their car instead.

People are jealous of your car. Or... maybe you pissed someone off, cut them off or something... and they hang around til you park and walk away from your car.

From the pix, it doesn't look too deep. Hopefully some good polishing and buffing will clean most of it.
