My guess is that it was probably a kid. Maybe someone will repay him some day by keying one of his cars.

Vette got keyed.
Two weeks ago tomorrow my car was in front of my house and some a$$ hole put a scratch all the way down the driver side. Took it to one of the best shops in town. Picked it up Monday, and part of it wasnt repaired and rubbing compound all over it. Called my Insurance (thats who recommended that shop) I have to have it back in there over the weekend again. Hoping for a better result when I go get it Monday afternoon. When I went to PD to do the report (had to have it for Insurance) the guy at the counter asked me if I knew who did it, my reply, If I knew you would have a body.

Sucks that some moron can't respect the property of others. Hope the body shop does a better job this time.

Somebody did this where I work too (a military base)
Most people hate on the fact I am young and drive a Corvette...but do you really have to key the "CORVETTE" in the back?
Going to get it fixed in a few months

I am sorry for your misfortune. I would have more respect for a thief than a person who would vandalize a car. At least the thief will benefit from his act....... What would you gain by vandalizing a persons property. I bet most of the cars keyed are done by some a$$hole who doesnt even know you........

I had my '66 keyed in an underground parking lot. They actually lifted up the cover, did their brainless deed and then replaced the cover. I am sure I know who did it, but without any proof, what can you do ???

Simple remedy man, put a note on your car:
"Whomever keyed this, I dare you to try it again". - Attach $20.00 to it.
Meanwhile you have setup a camera while you watch from your laptop to see if he tries again. When he does, let him walk away....
Find him later and meet him with a 12gauge and 12inch blade.
How do I know? - My old truck only got scratched once
