Keyed Down to Metal
My wife's black Audi S5 'vert was keyed all the way down the passenger side of the car, down to metal. There were ribbons of paint and metal still hanging from it when we noticed it.
While this car is a lease and due to be turned in next May, we were considering keeping it a while longer given it has literally not had a single problem of any kind. Thoughts on what will have to be done for the repair? Recommendations on a shop you would trust to do the work? I filed a claim with insurance today. The kicker is I had spent 5 hours on it with a Porter Cable orbital buffer polishing and waxing (after wash and clay) 3 weeks ago, and it looked pristine.

Avark at D&D auto (15207 Frederick Rd, Rockville, MD 20850, its around back) did a wonderful job on my WRX when I got keyed a few months ago (not quite to the metal, but into the primer of BOTH doors on the passenger side, edge to edge)
Price was quite reasonable too (did not go through insurance)

Did the vandalism happen in Leesburg? Wonder if some places need to be avoided given that I go there almost every day.

It was either in Leesburg in the parking garage at the Village at Waxpool (by Wegman's), or at my place of work not in Leesburg.
