Keyed hood, need Atlanta Detailer

someone keyed the hood of my dad's 330i in his parking garage. he lives in atlanta and i'd like to get him the name of a superstar detailer that can work the magic (hopefully without having to repaint). any suggestions in atlanta?
thanks in advance.

If you can feel it with your fingernail, then it is through the clear. I would repaint that before i tried to detail it.

That really is horrible. I only know of one detailing company I'd send you to. Call Jim Thomas of OnSiteShine...tell him Moe sent you. www.onsiteshine.com By the way, that's too deep of a scratch and you're looking at a repaint to get it back to factory.

UPDATE: my dad met with jim at onsiteshine. he said it needed to be repainted and put him in touch with mike at magnum collision in atlanta. they repainted the hood, replaced the front bumper/air dam (it was cracked from an earlier incident) and did the full on detail to make sure the new paint didn't stand out from the rest of the car. my dad could not be happier. truly a perfect job...he says the car looks like it did when it left germany in 2004.

so, on behalf of my dad, THANKS TO ALL.

Hey Moe or anyone else, would you happen to know a trusted repainter in Columbus or Cleveland, Ohio?
It's for a friend and possibly for future use for myself?

Finally Moe, on your website, you have an Aston AMV8 listed under the Ferrari tab in your portfolio. Thought you might wanna move that around a bit .

Thanks for the heads up on the website...it's still under construction. We should have it all wrapped up by the end of the month.
