Default What's the worst thing anyone has ever done to your car?

I'd just like to see what kind of target my car is made for by those little punks. So far, I guess nothing too bad has happened to my car. A little scratch here and there, no big deal. But I'm afraid for something big. So, I'd just like to see what kind of experiences my fellow Lexus (Lexi?) owners have been through.

I'd have to say, my little brothers friends wanted to pull a "FUNNY" prank, and pissed all over my car...

They ended up getting black eyes and bruises for days. =)

Also getting my emblems stolen.

Hrm...I had a passenger spill drinks on the leather seat. Then again I can't blame them. I did a full throttle launch from a dig without the person knowing

had someone slash the tires. I got a handgun after that. the week after I started packing someone tried to highjack the car while I was loading groceries in the passenger side. pulled what appeared to be a gun on me. told him there was a fire arm in the glove compartment and he went running. car has also been egged and last week some kids through a frosty at my car at an intersection. got my fender and most of the frosty went through my hood vent into my engine bay. it was vanilla.

Default Stolen center cap!!!

So far and hopefully the last incident, I recently had a Maya center cap stolen off my car! It has recently since been replaced, but I was worried that this wasn't going to happen due to the wheel being discontiued! I wish I would have caught the thief that stole it!
