That sucks

Where you at home or at a store,see if there are any cameras in the area.

What the Fvck is wrong with people.

Try a home fix first ,if not satisfied go to a recomended body guy.

Any pics of damage ?.

GOOD NEWS!! I took it to the place that washes and details my H3. I showed the keyed area to the manager to see if he could do anything. He recommended using a buffer, but that he'd have to to the whole side to keep the shine even. I told him I'd wait... maybe go to a body shop or the dealer. After a minute he thought about it again and said he had a cream that might work. It did!!!!! The scratches didn't go down into the paint .. it was a surface scratching. It looked like they were trying the scratch out a whole area going up/down and sideways. You absolutely cannot tell there were ANY scratches! This guy did an awesome job. It was like magic.

Fourfourto, all I know is that it happened over the weekend .. most probably Sunday. I suspect it was done in a neighboring town when we out to dinner early evening, because I first noticed it Monday morning in the daylight. I doubt it was done in my area. I am seeing more and more H2's and H3's in my area .. soon they'll rename it 'Hummer Hill'.

Thanks to everyone's suggestions. Totally appreciated. Sorry to hear what happened to your H3, HawaiianStyleH3. That was totally vicious.

you did just what I was going to sugest. a detail or wash guy knows how to heat up the clearcoat and move scratches out or take your eye off them.

I must have read your mind! I am SOOOOOO glad the scratches disappeared after the detailer did his magic!!!!
