Keying marks usually appear to start on one side deep and then trail off lighter as the assholes keep walking. If a scratch thats really sad as thats a sharp looking ride My fear with sunshades is they tend to draw unnecessary attention while parked unattended instead of staying under the sicko radar, especially if its sharp looking luxury vehicle. I almost want to keep mine dirty to blend in with some of the other shit boxes out there. Like I'd ever put the "gold" colored one from one of the links above and then leave it parked on a city street. Last edited by expidia; 08-04-2017 at 07:48 AM.. |

Most of us here on the forum take a sense of pride in our cars, while others see the action of protecting the interior and keeping the inside cool with a sun shade or parking far from the crowd as being pretentious. You're most likely right. I was able to scrub out the black marking that was most likely made by a bicycle handle bar but there still seems to be a slight, barely noticeable discoloration left behind. I was out of town for a few weeks but now that I'm back, I'm sure a good detail will get her back into shape! As far as the sunshade, I too wish that the lettering wasn't displayed because it just draws unnecessary and unwanted attention from the wrong crowd.

So my feeling is stay low. or you might as well put a big icon of "the finger" on your sunshade because that big BMW logo is as you say pretentious and its just inciting the lowlife vermin out there. |

I agree with @Florida-X5 the scratch or whatever it is that is rubbed on the paint appears to be unintentional and simply an accident and the person doing was probably unaware of it.

Actually in my rambling, I was thinking intentional at first but now that we have learned it's a transfer, might have been a bicycle handle or something like that. Intentional probably would have been a scratch and not a transfer.
