wondering if this car is jinxed. on saturday went to the body shop, sanded, buffed, and polished the headlight cover and reinstalled it on car. as i was going in to shut the headlights off, i notoiced a deep scratch on the door and got very agitated. went in and got my buddy to look at it. i was hoping we could just compound it out.
 
he saw it and couldn't believe it and then we found a couple of lighter scratches. said we would have to repaint top half of door as the paint was cracked.
 
can't understand how somebody could do that. whoever did it should thank their lucky star that i don't know who did it. if it was some sort of accident, at least they could have done was to own up to it.AngryCensoredWits End

Sorry to hear that Dave after what you've been through the past year.  Maybe someone looking in the car and a zipper, button, etc. got it?  I do feel your pain, just did an indoor car show this weekend at a mall, and spent the whole time shooing people away from dragging their jackets, pocketbooks, hands down the side of the car.  
 
Only advice I can offer is perhaps a trip to the local church for an exorcism or at least a sprinkle of holy water.

Sorry to hear this. Do youhave any idea where it happened?  The movie Pulp Fiction has a good part about people that mess up other peoples paint work.

i feel your pain dave, why don't you get some stands and rope and just put it around the car once you finish it.  this will keep ass holesssssssss away from it.   i just had a simaler thing happen to me..sucks i bet your vette is outstanding,  even when other a-holes screw it up.... like to see pic's when its done..

Nope, it will never end! As long as you attempt to have something nice, there is someone that just wont care and will mess it up..... God gave us the desire to do it right, man gave us alarms and guns to protect them....
