  How do you know it was an Arsenal fan? X)
  
  As WTP said, cant the repair wait?
  
  Chips away are very good for chips. Not so sure on a long key line. (that wasnt a negative - i just not seen a job for this)

  I've got a nice £450 bill to pay
  
  Does it really need paying? A scratch doesnt affect your car's performance.
  
  Maybe try T-cut first.

  Ive used chips away...they are not good for large areas but not bad for small scratches. I had a black car and the guy left ghost marks where it want polished properly so had to call him back twice. Still not 100% but its better than respraying. Good luck.

  He/She would lose no claims, Premiums would rise, Over the years the difference in premiums would probably be more than £450 plus the excess.
  
  The scratch could wait, However if they're deep scratches you might want to try and prevent rust somehow, Especially as it's winter.

  no chance of polishing it well if it was an old banger but my car is pristine and my pride and joy so I've got to restore it

  But doesn't your no claims bonus only get lost if you were at fault. In this example, the owner of the car was helpless. This seems unfair!!!

  ^ doesn't matter they are claiming off their own insurance, only time your premium is not really affected is when you claim off a third parties insurance.

  Find yourself a good detailer..specialise in restoring your car back to its former glory as long as its not down to the metal.

  plus increased renewal premium for the claim
  
  thought it went without saying that its pointless claiming on car insurance for small amounts...... ;)

  Aren't there some policies that its not a claim when its vandalism? Im sure that was First Direct - though that's I who use and I cant remember it being mention. Just remember the ads with the bricks falling in the car!
  
  Wouldnt affect my NCB as its protected and my excess is £50. But I expect the premiums would get loaded, so even with that, its debatable if its worthwhile.
