That makes my blood boil!!! I'm literally looking around my desk for something to pick up and bludgeon imaginary vandals with. I hope you can get it fixed quickly and won't notice the damage after the repair. Sucks, man.

I know that feeling. It sucks. Over the course of a year and a half or so, someone would come by at night and egg my Evo for no reason. It happened maybe 4-5 times. Could never catch him as it was not consistent and in the middle of the night. I just don't understand why people would do something like this.

I had my black S2000 egged the day of new years. All over the car... Top, door handles, hood, windshield(multiple eggs here so I couldnt clean it). It was awful... I got back to the car around 11 PM, drove 25 miles home and stayed up washing the car in the cold til 2 AM. bull shit people around the world that fucks it up for everyone...

That's terrible. First week I had my FR-S, somebody spit something all over the back window and trunk while I was parked watching a movie at the Palms. It looked like soda and popcorn fragments or something. People hate when they see people coming up. That's one of the reasons I went out and got a license plate ASAP. At least then maybe a passer by won't think "Oh, brand new car? Look at this rich mother f%#@r"

Some people are just terrible people. If someone ever does this to my car, I just hope I'm lucky enough to catch them in the act.

Neither. Rather it is compelling evidence to insist abortion remains an option for our women, regardless of what political party you favor.

The perpetrator is definitely a load that should have been swallowed.

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


Man that sucks ! slime balls :paddle:

That totally sucks man. I thought 'keying' was just an Australian phenomenon. What's going through their f#$ked up little heads?!

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.

that's right! collision on this car is wild! they total easy!

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.

sick fuck!

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?

be prepared for a very large estimate based on the car being reshot!

Wow sorry to see that man, that just sucks. That is still my biggest fear when parking this car in the public.

Blackvue Camera
 
Sorry to read of your misfortune. Somebody spit on the hood of my FR-S, no big deal compared to physical damage on your vehicle by vandals. I purchased a Blackvue 400HD video camera that has a parking mode, it has a motion sensor. I think this could be a useful tool in a case of vandalism or accident. Good Luck with your repair.

gusbarragan 10-30-2012 10:49 PM

Who did you piss off? There weren't any cameras? or did it happen at home?

shishand 10-30-2012 11:51 PM

shit like this makes me want to get one of those car cameras.. i wonder if they have a 360 look on the whole car or only the front..

Le86 10-31-2012 01:17 AM

That is so effed up man, I'm terribly sorry about this. I literally have nightmares about people messing with my car so I'm super paranoid about crap like this happening.

Unfortunately, I think people do this shit out of jealousy. It's like really? If you're that jealous of a new car, why don't you go work your ass off like the rest of us so you can buy one for yourself? Then again people like that don't deserve to be in one of these cars. I hate everybody... on your behalf. :mad0260:
