Yeah, if it was Kia, I'd say you were being anal. It's a Z! Not fixing it would be like having a supermodel girlfriend with a wart on the end of her nose.

I'd have fixed it too. Whatever it costs.

Doesn't look like a rock chip to me. Some def did it, but I don't know if it was done on purpose... like they might have accidently hit it and ran away. Still a d-bag move.

Yea my buddy just recently had his Carrera keyed at his work while 99% sure who is responsible. I don't even like to think of myself in his position. The man definitely has a lot of patience and restraint.

your friend could contact his insurance and police and have this 'person' questioned... just in case.

I'm sure he's contacted his insurance, however I don't know if the suspect was questioned. I also don't know exactly what the story is other than the guy is already in deep sh*t due to other unrelated crap going on at work. Deep as in potentially worse than just losing his job.

Knowing you though, you probably deserved it

I probably did Andrew as much as the guy whose butt I would have imprinted "Made in America" with my boots had I caught him in the act (Forgive the huge run-on sentence) I will make a recommendation for a blue Z owner with advan wheels somewhere off of Edmunton Ave

That came out perfect. I'd do the same to mine, but the problem is I have a clear bra. The one real rock chip I have went right through my clear bra on my front fascia and down to the primer. What an eye sore... clear bras are great but they are a nightmare when they are defeated.
