Tonight out the front of work, my car was egged thanks to some morons with very small penis's and no respect for anybody else, anyway the egg was washed off no worries but it seems theyv'e by hand mashed 2 eggs onto my bonnet scratching right thru to metal as the pictures below will show.

My question is how and can I fix this without a full bonnet respray?
Or is there nothing else I can do ?

They don't have to hand mash them to do that damage, just throwing an egg at a car causes it.
I think that will need respraying, won't be able to cut the paint back as its gone through the colour.

Yeah it will have to be cutback and resprayed for sure, if the damage is bad. Some punk kid did that to my beautiful Monza Red XF a couple of years ago!!! :x I just got some Paint Doctor on it thou and it cleared up pretty nicely.

Thats just the result of any normal egging.. happened on the cnr of boot on my old car, had to get resprayed..

For my own peace of mind, i have to ask do u know the tw*ts who did this or get chance to go after them?

I had a mostly empty drink can thrown out at my car the other day, did a u'turn over a median strip n went after them, at time figured my bonnet was dented - was highly p****d!
So lucky i got caught at a red light or the blue bmw that it came from would have had some damage to repair if i got his plates!
To my suprise, no damge as result of can, washed drink off right away - sill upset about it tho.

On way back from an ALL FORD DAY in Albury cruise with the group in what 2004? i had a full drink can thrown at front of my car on princess hwy in st kilda, hit my bumper n chipped paint - i got worst luck with drink cans aye.. :evil: :!:

Yeah that's bad news from both of you. EFWIKD6, f**k were most likely jealous of that car mate, looks like it is absolutely mint otherwise.
What a wasteful bit of destruction going after other peoples pride and joy like that. That is the type of disgusting human trait that can put us below par to that of the animal. :evil:

ROFL :lol:
good call, i'll pay that :)

I hate C*** that have no respect for others property, I have heaps of marks on my car that look exactly like the ones in the picture, they were on the car when I bought it but it s**t me to tears.

Have had this car egged once since I bought it, I now know to stay away from housing commision dropkicks that cant afford their own cars... (Have fun growing up on my tax dollars you bludging f**k, enjoy the zero quality of life...)

Anyway... Go into your work and park in the bosses spot, tell him unless hes gunna pay for the paintwork that its your spot now, thats what I'd do.
Ive already told my work the instant I notice a new scratch on my car sitting out the front of our workshop its getting parked in the sublevel carpark and I dont care what the owner of the company says...
(Tho last time I parked there I gouged the concrete with my zorst cause the cars too low to get in there)

usually u shouldnt lower urself 2 someone else's level, but if they try n hurt u or ur car then i figure its on.
a few years back now i was riding my bike home from work n i had 2 guys in a car throw 2 eggs at me...1 missed and 1 landed on my bag (but it didnt break). Little did the clowns know it was a dead end street...and so i threw the egg at them when they went past me again...i got the driver in the side of the head which caused him 2 crash into a light pole. so i went up 2 the window n laughed at them (i know thats mean but they deserved it) n besides it was a Holden Camira that they were in...

not 2 long ago (just b4 i crashed my AU) i had a guy kick the front guard on the passanger side in surfers paradise while i was in traffic...needless 2 say i kicked him in the head...and he didnt dint the car either which was great.
i was still p*ssed about it though...
