Andretti brings up a good point high school kids aren't the brightest, I would say buff it as best you can and maybe try applying some touch up paint. Cause if they did it because they are jealous of your car, if you get a new even nicer hood then they'll just get even more jealous. Some pics would help though so we can see what the extent of the damage is.

Should I bother with the Fixit stuff? I tried buffing, it will not come out.

I got 5 quotes, from 434.55 to 1283.81.

I guess I am looking for a vista blue hood OEM or not for $350-450. any suggestions, you selling a hood? i will pay to get it shipped too
Where do you go to school? Ive noticed a few more s197's at my school this year (gordon college) including a nice grabber gt.

And is it in a location where you could put some vinyl striped over? Ive heard good things about Langka (spelling) which is applied after touchup paint. Honestly id just get some touch up paint and live with it for now. My car has like 10 small dents and a few key marks which drive me crazy but i park in a parking lot full of 200+ college students so i know the day after i get it fixed ill have a new one.

Sorry to hear about your situation. I cannot think of any of my vehicles that has escaped being keyed.
