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?

Did you park like an ass? Sorry to hear that happened, a body shop is your best bet

    It doesn’t matter. Leave a note, don’t destroy someone else’s property.

    I’m not advocating for vandalism, but people don’t usually key cars for no reason

    Truth be told i probably deserve it on some sort of cosmic scale of karma.

    But also I didn't do anything that would make my car a target to my knowledge.

    You know what? Good on you for recognizing that we’re not perfect. You’re cool in my book OP. Sorry this happened, wish I had constructive advice to give.

    I once parked a car for a while on a well populated road, in a completely legal spot, without parking in a weird angle, without parking too close to anyone, and there's no one there that would know me and have a problem with me, so the only likely explanation is that some jackass teenager found it funny to key my car for no reason.
