agreed...vandals ALWAYS try to follow up on their work. They NEED a second look
and when they do...nail them bitches to the wall.

I have also had some vandalism. The guy that owned my Z4C before me must have pissed off his GF or Ex-GF or whatever and she came by his house and keyed EVERY panel (including the T-Tops) and threw a brick through the windshield and busted up the dash pad. She also decided to use a razor blade and try to peel off the 30th stripes... which obviously didn't work. Needless to say, he turned it in to insurance and they helped a little, but he still paid $2,100 to have it repainted plus the new T-Tops and new windshield. Well, that was 4 months ago... So I saw the car listed on here and I was interested in buying it.... well the week before I bought it.... that crazy b*tch came by again and did the exact same thing. So I ended up getting the car way cheaper, but its still furious to think about!

why do you have to pay so much if you have full coverage?

Because he wants to get the whole car painted, the insurance company would pay for damages but not any extra work.

Know this much, if you do find out who did it, it won't be much of a fight. For them to key your car behind your back means they're afraid of you.

This is a confirmation of what I said. If they weren't pussies, they'd do it in front of you (or let you know it was them) knowing that IF you retaliated, they'd take your head off (or you would be too afraid to retaliate).

Obviously they're afraid and have self doubt, regardless of their pharmaceutical supplementation.

It doesn't make any sense the other way around.

Someone got my friends 350Z the other day. Apparently they were trying to carve an "aftermarket" hood. They keyed it to where it looked like it vents in the hood and a weird "V" shaped scoop. They also keyed the body lines over the wheels and down the doors. They even keyed the roof, head and tail lights, trunk lid, and the rear and front bumpers. They were carving things in it to apparently make it look like your average rice vehicle but its stock outside and a Vortech supercharger under the hood. All in all it was a little over $7000 in damages. The insurance wants to total the car just because every single pannel on the car was keyed. Consider yourself lucky that you didnt get it that bad.
