Another Vandalism Thread

Hi, sorry about making another one of these, but I've been struck as well. It looks pretty mindless, and I'm pretty sure the only tool they had was a pen. I guess it's not as bad as it could've been, but still sucks that someone decided to just ruin my day like this. And it may have even been my own fault since this was the first day I left my new cell phone mount attached to the window.

How I found it. Some rocks in the bumper too.


Took my plastic off just below the windshield. They also left some muddy gunk near the wipers.



A rusty nut on the roof.


Took my weather stripping. And left the pen they were using.



Tried to get the pen into the lock it looks like. It's all marked up.


Scratched the driver side quarter panel.


Rocks just sitting on the trunk. I didn't see any damage.


Random just left under the plate. They also pulled the plate and bent it up.


They scratched my driver side window too, but I couldn't get it to show up in a picture. They also used the pen to draw circles around the suction cup on the phone mount on the windshield.

So frustrating... I bet the culprits have no idea how expensive this kind of damage is to repair or how badly it can ruin someone's day, week or month.

WOW. WTF is wrong with people now a days. No hope for the human race. I hope who ever is responsible will share a jail cell w/ Aaron Hernandez in the near future. Douchebags.

I'm really very sorry to read about this. I always worry about my cars too... I hope you can use your comprehensive deductible and get it fixed. I know this is trite, but when something senseless like this happens to me I try to think about how maybe the vandal might not kill or torture an animal now, or maybe they did it because they have been abused and were just looking to take out their anger.

I'm sorry you are going through this.

Two years ago I walked out of a mall to find my new car on fire in a parking lot. I know how sick something like this can make you feel.

I think I'm going to stop in at the UPS hub across the street and see if they have any exterior cameras that point towards my work place lot. That or if they saw anyone doing it. They place is pretty busy so I find it hard to imagine no workers saw something.

I never understood why people go through the trouble of doing this. How much time was spent going to each body panel of the car to leave the damage that was left? Idk what people expect to gain out of doing shit like this to other people.

Pisses me off.

What's more frustrating is I'm willing to bet somebody saw whoever did this at some point in time considering how scattered the damage is across the car. They chose not to say or do anything about it. People don't want to get involved and do the right thing by notifying somebody. I'm disgusted by what our society has become over recent years.

Hopefully it all gets fixed without a big headache or having to break the bank

Well, whoever owns the parking lot should be told.

They'll have to do something, maybe install cameras if you raise enough hell.

Who knows what they do or were thinking. It doesn't look like they put much thought into it. It could have been a lot worse, I suppose, so there's that to think about at least. It's crazy that you came out to your car on fire. That would've floored me.

It's quite possible they were seen. The area the lot is in isn't very busy, but the UPS hub across the street is always active. I'm betting they were shoo'd away though, or else they might have done more damage. You just never know with this type of stuff.
