While your thinking on who could have done it,

Another person could be the chap who bought the shaddow chromes off you for £900, then realised he could have got them for £699. obviously a little miffed and took revenge

Just an idea, not saying that this person would do such a thing  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

R.E Security - it seems that you are damned if you do & damned if you don't!! In theory it should put most idiots off doing things they shouldn't.

I have been to the bodyshop & as expected anyway as with most repairs the panel either side needs to be blended otherwise yes it will stick out.

The little sh*tes next door to me watched me spend a good 3 hours giving my car a quick once over.

I went out a hour after i had finished as i left my Ipod in the car and noticed they had decided to colour in the letters on the boot handler with permanent marker, colour in the 00's on my reg plate and write all over the back window again in black marker "ha ha not so f**king clean now". to say i hit the roof was an under statement.

I have rigged up a small camera now to a LP VCR so i can watch it.

You say rear wings have they walked around the car and done both sides

guess you have had a look, as you say its down to the undercoat, car you feel the scratch with your finger nail? if not it might just be the clear coat which which does look white when scratched and might polish out Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Hurts enough if you should damage the paintwork accidently yourself, but having some other do it for you is quite meaningless
