So I was doing my daily walk around today and found these 3 scratches deep in my cars paint on the left side of the rear bumper by the reflector or whatever you call it.

I'd like to know how the hell something this bad got into my paint when I've never hit anything, I always park away from all cars, and on top of all that look at the location of it... the surrounding area is perfectly fine which doesn't lead me to believe someone hit it. This is ridiculous I'm pretty pissed.. any advice would be helpful

that looks intentional, with a key or screwdriver or something.

You can either hit it with touchup paint, put a sticker or something over it, or get the whole repainted.

You're right I'm positive this was intentional and now narrowing it down to 3 suspects... how much you think a shop would charge to fix this?

Nah someone definitely hit me, you can also see marks on the plastic part of the reflector in this pic. Its nice to know that even if you park in the safest spots and isolated from everyone that some dumb ass will still hit your car

TBH it looks like a scrape from the edge of a front license plate or something. Whoever did it may not have even known.

Maybe. I'm thinking that, a friend of mine thinks something might've hit my car while driving...either way I'm taking it to the body shop in an hour or so, hoping they can make this less noticeable without hurting my pockets too much

:agree: I'm paranoid, I check my car almost after each drive to see if I have any dents or scratches. Also, I avoid parking beside people unless they are expensive cars.

Alika, what did the body shop do for you? What was the bill, if you don't mind me asking?
