my door got scratched!!!

I went to buy some breakfast this morning and when i came out I saw these horizontal white streaks on my driver side door. the guy must have opened his door, scratched my door, and then sped off.

what should I do to get it repaired?

I take an extra 5 minutes to find a advantageous parking space for that very reason. The odd part is after parking at the very end of the lot there have been a few times when some "ass-wipe" had to park tight against me with no other cars in sight?

I actually witnessed a "ass-wipe" strike a car in the mall parking area and then move to a new spot pretending to have not caused the damage. I had a full description of driver ready when the Deputy showed up and he burned the bitch!!!!

my friend put some turtle was on it initially, it got a little better, but it's still there. then i went to the toyota dealer and the guy at the service desk, wiped some polishing stuff on it, then he recommended I go into the store and buy some touch up paint, which I did. I haven't applied it yet, waiting to wash my car and then apply the paint.

Anyone that puts those kind of scratches on a car should have their license revoked permanently and serve 6 months in jail.

Been there.... my Yaris Sedan(flint mica) got scratch by what else but another Yaris Sedan(white)...
I was late for class and I see this guy on his white Yaris that parks at my side. I'am walking and noticed he parked really close to my car but I was on a hurry so I left for class when I come back I check my car and there was a white stripe and the scratch and a white Yaris next to mine. I got so mad my friend and I took our keys(4 people 4 keys ) out and I'am sure the guy must like his new graphics

dont hurt the car. its not the car's fault the driver is an asswipe. next time just use the keys to damage the driver instead. putting graphics on his face would be more interesting anyway...

When someone is caught in the act of fucking up your car you should beat his/her ass. That poor car.

Agree.Sometimes you feel that it is the only solution...

In Greece, some stupid kids sat on my hood and scratched it with their pants' buttons.Next time I parked it at the same spot, but the hood was full of black wax...Hahaha, nice revenge!

You take pride in this???? Sad.

I also park in the back 40 at most places but I never take up 2 spaces as not to piss off people like the above poster. I also dont park TOO far away where security cameras wont pick up the action and license plate numbers.

I need the exercise also from the walking.
