It could of been a few months old, but I found a two foot long scratch obviously made by someone with ill intentions on the left rear quarter panel. This actually didn't cause me too much pain--not as much as it would of caused on one of my 201's, but it still hurt. I washed the car, tried to "remove" the scratch with a "scratch removal" compound which just made me feel even worse since I now had to get my hands deep into this crime that someone committed on my car. Then I gave up and decided to go to Costco and get myself a car cover for $35. It came with two buckles to tighten it on the front and back. Went to Harbor Freight and picked up four wheel covers which will likely get stolen from the basement shared garage my car sits in (which is incidentally why I don't install the hood star that a fellow PP member sold me months ago).

The car is always dusty when I come make my monthly or bi-weekly visits to check up on the car and work on it here and there, thereby exposing all the places where people have touched my car. The mere thought of people touching my car makes me want to hurl, but for the most part its just a few hand and paw prints here and there.

Anyways, what's gone is lost and there's no point in crying over it.






Post to this thread if your diesel was ever keyed. Even just a little At least, just to make me feel better...
