No real words to explain, walked out of the house and something told me to do a walkaround (which I never do) and someone left me a gift, and this is after someone played 'taps' with my front drivers side wheel well. Oh well, enough of the suspense, cringe with me:




I think I'm going to get a screwdriver and make some scratches until I get the total zebra pattern down.

Thank GOD summers over........

Jeez! I'm sorry that happened. I would be livid! I was keyed two months ago as well. I hope you find the person who did this to your car.

Where in NY do you live?

Damn... that sucks! My car was a victim of a hit and run today at school. Of course I didn't find out until I got home. I've been in school for only 3 weeks (quarterly system) and this crapped happened to me already. The previous owner managed to keep the 8 year old car immaculate. I've had the car only 4months and have accumulated about 5 door dings and now this. The damage to my car though is to the driver's side rear part of the bumper...From the look of it, the person who parked next to me backed out and turned too soon leaving 6 inches worth of missing paint. The scrape is so bad you can see the black primer underneath and the paint is chipping away by the chunks. I was just about to order a TTE front lip fron Sewell...Now I have to use the money to repaint my STOCK rear bumper... I usually park all the way in the back because I am paranoid and now I have every right to be. Like you, I didn't do a walk around today even though I was parked right in front which I should have since that is where everyone tries to park and there is so much traffic. It was too dark also when I put my bag in the trunk. I got out at 7pm. I can't believe I didn't notice it. Don't mean to hijack your thread. Just thought I'd vent out also so you know someone else is in the same boat.

My friend that was over told me the same thing about blah blah blah I shouldn't be driving a nice car especially at school anyways. It's just screwed up how some people don't take responsibility for their actions. This is the 3rd or 4th time this has happened to me, though not the same car though. I used to believe in karma.
