What to do: My car was vandalized
 

So I parked my car in a safe spot and someone managed to key it super badly. Not only is it keyed on the door, quarter panel, door handle, and rear bumper, but it is so deep that basically half the car will have to be re-painted. The damage estimate was $900 and I will have to pay my deductible as well...blah.

Basically what do I do at this point? I filed a police report, but I'm just really upset about all of this. I hope whoever did this stays alive while the rest of their family dies in front of them. This is why I fucking hate people and our shitty society. AHHHHHHHH

OT: Your's doesn't look as bad as mine, since it's past the layer of metal, shit's horrid.

For you,

It looks like it could be buffed out, but requires a lot of work.. Even than you would most likely have to repaint the panels if you can't buff most of it out.

Does your area have CCTV? You can get a video if so.

Damn bastards got my sports car.
They also got my new family car on every quarter panel.

I would attempt to wetsand one of the areas to see if you can sand it out - it can't hurt, as you'll need a respray if it doesn't work.

WTF? Why? I just don't get it. Is it our cars? If it had been an 86 Accord parked in your spot, would they have keyed that? S*** Just makes no sense.

Is it envy, jealousy, anger, ?

Sorry to hear about that! People suck!!! That is why I have a $0 deductible on comprehensive just for stupid $hit like this! It only costs about $10-$20 extra every 6 months to lower your deductible as comprehensive is cheap, collision is the expensive part. You may want to look into it after you get this fixed.

I haven't had this happen, but I did have someone hock a big lugie on my windshield over the weekend. It is now safely tucked away in my garage at night rather than on the street.

It's probably a combination of all three...to that I say "Get an f-ing job, do some overtime and buy your own!":mad0260:

That really sucks. Maybe you can come out with something good. Maybe go two-tone on the paint or do a wrap....something to make lemonade....

Sorry to hear. Boulder seems like a decent place, but every town will have its share of low-lifes. I honestly think vandalism should carry a prison sentence.

Bro hug to you man. If it happened to me, I would be furious obviously but I will leave it alone so that people stop vandalizing it until the hype for our cars die down. Seriously, nothing would mess you up worse than paying out of pocket to have it repainted only to have to experience the pain all over again later. There are people who would just take that as a challenge.

My brother owns a restaurant, high school kids would spray paint random fuggly graffiti on it for no damn reason, 3 times repaint they still do it. He then hired a local artist to put a good graffiti on it then the vandalism stopped. 3 years later he painted it it over and no kids bothered with it since.

Actually it didn't get vandalized in Boulder, it was in Idaho when I went out there to see my friend. That place is super shitty, I have quite a low opinion of both that state and Wyoming.

Nonetheless the claims adjuster is supposed to call me in the next day or so and I will figure out what to do from there. I'm just so frustrated at the moment - why would someone do this shit?

Wow that's some BS bro, I'd lose my mind. Prob some low life punk mad at the world for dropping out of HS and now living on the street.
