Car egged
:icon_ evil:some son of a bitch just egged my car while i was waiting outside the dorm for my girlfriend.
I tried to follow him but lost him and wound up at a car-wash within 5 minutes to spray and scrub that **** off. Please calm me down by telling me it wont ****up my paint since it didnt dry.
I used the wand to rinse/soap/spray, followed by foaming brush liberally down the side of my car and washed it away. Got home and threw some quick detailer on.
EDIT
a ****ty attempt at capturing the damage the shell did to my paint with my iphone.
the shell did a number on my paint -.-
however the other week i bought a touchup pen for my car from the stealership for another spot. A local shop said he would touch it up for free with the pen supplied. <the first spot>
Will this fill/cover the chipped spots?

Believe me I tried to. I've never peeled out that hard in the TWO months I have owned it.
I saw a truck shape sitting in an alley in a shady apartment complex. Stopped and looked. Decided it was best to just move on and get it washed.

What a ****ing piece of ****. If you got it off in 5 minutes, there shouldn't be any damage other than some minor scratching (most visible on a dark colored car). Go inspect where the eggs hit with a flashlight.

****. That blows. Do they look similar to this in person?
If it bothers you enough to spend ~$70ish, try out Dr. Colorchip's road rash kit. It should do the trick if the chips are big enough to hold paint.

Ill talk to friends/body shop soon and see if touchup paint will do it or if i need to look into that
