Vandalised roof, ideas?

[l33th3tr33]

So I've just come outside and noticed two dents in my roof, one not too bad, and the other looks like it's been stabbed with a screwdriver or something. I'm too fuming right now to think but does anyone have any advice on repairs or the cost?
I don't know who did it so that's the worst thing, and if I find out I'll tear their f**king heads off!

Sorry to see that dude some right c***s out there, id call a mobile dent man out wont cost too much to sort but theyd only use acryllic paints etc to cover up and wont last forever, tbf a new painted roof shouldn't cost more than £200 and isnt hard to dolly it out and put some filler in. Try your luck with a body shop.

I can't understand what drives people to do this... jealousy maybe?

Re. cost, I had my roof re-sprayed (a quarter was sanded right back and re-sprayed, the whole roof was then re-laquered) and I paid £220.

Maybe ask your neighbors if they saw anything, damn it they must be jealous!

Thanks guys, I can't believe it, the car was on my driveway too, and I must have been sat about 10 feet away (in the house) But I didn't hear anything. Glad it won't cost too much to respray but it's just another thing on the list, and with the belts being a priority it won't get done for a while. I'll ask the neighbors tomorrow but we get on very well so I'd imagine they'd have given me a knock already if they had seen anything.

I've had another look and it might be possible to knock it out a tiny bit, but that can wait til the weekend.

This is the second thing to happen this week, someone scraped the side of the car and took paint off the bump strip (luckily) and the rest polished out, barring a couple chips on the edge of the wheel arch.

f**k f**k f**k f**k f**k.

Unlucky mate, i just dont understand why someone would do that.

Anyone got an air rifle near you could be done by one maybe?

Manufacture paint time and materials has a repair on the roof at about £350 inc paint and time to fill the damage, 2 hours.

My garage door fell on my 182 ages ago so I estimated it on £30 an hour labour rate, didn't get it done though as the car's worth diddly squat.

I was quoted over £200 by a dent man to do my cars roof. It got littered with small dents from a load of hail stones a few years ago. I've never had it done though as it doesn't bother me that much.
