    Default Car Vandals .... wtf do i do ?

    well you see i have a problem,

    theres a native group in town that seem to enjoy throwing shit at my car-

    eggs, rocks, powerade, coke, some fluidly substance i could work out wtf it was .... i know who they are but the problem is

    A- i've informed the cops this is happening but #### all has come of it and
    B- if i belt them, i get the entire " i'll get my relo's after you " .... you know the last word.

    i've thought about doing it back, but the kia couldn't possibly get another dint on it ....

    Can't put in the backyard or garage etc? If they can't see it do you reckon they'll look for it?

    Hassle the cops - get them to press for criminal charges and criminal damage.

    If the cops aren't doing anything about it and it's blatantly obvious about who it is - start pushing to see results.

    Don't sell the car, don't stop going to your activities. Maybe try to find a new place to park it.

    Or another common solve - maybe try not to piss so many people off.

    basketball, touch & work are all at the same location ?
    are they following around your car ?

    Is it just happening to your car, or are others in your area also having the problem.
    there's probably not much you can do if it's happening to your car when it's unattended, apart from leaving the car locked up at home & taking public transport
    otherwise you could just buy a $200 POS to drive to work. That way if it gets trashed - you won't lose any sleep

    Do the same to a cop's car, maybe they'll care then.

    didn't mean to cause any offence - but these sorts of things 99% of the time are aggravated.

    Best bet is to hassle the cops to see some results. At the end of the day, if you know exactly who it is, and the cops aren't doing anything, and your property is still getting damaged. You probably have a good case to be calling them every 5 minutes. After all, it's their job to 'Enforce the law' and it's quite obvious that these 'Kia low lifes' are breaking the law.

    fair idea.....

    you get brake fluid and throw it all on different panels of their car, shit eats straight though the paint work, only way to fix it is to have the whole car re-painted. hee hee hee.

    The problem is the fact that you have spoken (ie:identified) yourself to the cops and the moment breathe on their car - as unfair as it is - the Kia halfwits will be down to the copshop dobbing

    you in.

    If you were thinking about getting away with dealing out some retribution then you should have thought about that before doing the "right" thing because you are joining the dots for them.

    It's a sad fact in life that you work hard to get something nice and some jealous lowlife wants what you have without getting off his a$$.

    As said before - buy a clunker and leave your good car at home, for a few hunge you can sleep well

    Cheers John

    Play it absolutely straight and legal - they probably have less to lose than you in this regard.

    Do not react (visibly) in any way as this is why people do these things: to get a reaction. Patiently continue to promptly wash off all and anything that ends up on the car (hopefully nothing that will damage the paint will be used).

    Pictorial evidence of the scumbags in action might be useful in engaging law enforcement if you can arrange to obtain it. The little CCTV cameras are pretty cheap - <$200 - and will run of 12 or 5V although I guess that setting one up may be difficult. Maybe in another car in a car park?
