Nice scratch from a kid's tricycle
 
Nice long scrape down to the black plastic on the rocker panel below the black rubber stripping. Little neighborhood kids were all playing. My street is a hill so they love to ride the big wheels, razors, scooters, wagons, you name it down the hill. My house is right where the street makes a left curve at the bottom.

Little creep could have left a note written in crayon.

I think it is too deep to use a paint pen. Body shop estimates it at just shy of $250 and three days so I am bringing it in next week.

that sucks man.. But it really sounds like you got a deal on the work. # days like a long time for a minor repair like that, but it is what it is. With a car like yours, why do you park it outside anyways??? My ride is inside the garage 100% of the time. I will admit that I am maybe 1 of 3 people in the entire neighborhood that actually leaves the car inside. I live in AZ where you have to be nuts not to want to park the car inside

I would have to find the little devil and see if he can match his handywork on the other side.

I say go find the little bastard and scratch up his tricycle :)

That's probably the best place to have a scratch repaired.
If the color match is off a bit,you won't notice it.
