Default Someone keyed my PT

I have only had my 2001 PT Cruiser for 3 weeks, and it has already been keyed. It's probably about 8 inches long and it's on the drivers side, on the lower part of the fender. It has a custom flame job, and they keyed it right over that. I worked my you know what off to buy this car and I'm really not happy about this. Would it be possible for someone to repair a custom paint job like this without it looking like a patch job? How does one go about having something like this repaired?

Here's a picture of the damage:



It appears to be a surface scratch, it did not penetrate the steel.

Any advice would be appreciated~!!!

Unfortunatley with all the custom work you have there, you will need a good body shop. I would kill someone if I saw that, makes you wonder why people have to damage other property. just plain idiots.
