Gsl Hell

So my precious GSL was keyed ******* completely from one end to another on both sides of my doors. The marks got deep into the paint so I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to grind it down, bondo it, and repaint. I'm wondering if any other available options you guys might have. Is there something i can buy? Oh and I am open to sell the car 12A rebuilt, full mariah bodykit, Pioneer speakers and CD. Custom silver pinstripping and silver MAZDA lettering on both sides of the doors I wanted 4,000 before the terrible incident but im going 3,000 obo. If no one wants it I'll stay with it

You can use touchup paint, and a lot of pateince, to fill those scratches. Depending on the color of the car, and the amount of time you are willing to invest, they may be very hard to find after doing this. Some colors are next to impossible to fully hide these touchups, while others are very easy to make them almost invisible, even if you know where they were.

Depending on how deep the scratches are, if the exposed bare metalor not, glazing putty might work for the fill. Take the car to an autobody paint supplier and ask them. Sometimes they are more willing to give advice than the body shops will because they sell product, not service.
