I noticed my car had been keyed this morning. How should I go about fixing it? (lemmy.ml)

I'm pretty sure this happened away from home and I'm just now noticing. The scratch is really deep hitting the metal in the deepest part. I have full coverage but I'm worried a claim will raise my insurance too much to be worth it. I've wrenched on cars before but never painted anything because it scares me.

Is it time to start watching chrisfix videos or should i just deal with insurance?

Vandalism would normally be covered by comprehensive coverage, and won't affect your premiums; you'll just have to pay a deductible. If you tried to do it yourself, you'd never get the paint to match quite right, so you're better off taking it to an auto body shop to have it professionally repaired.
