Car keyed in front of a nightclub right in front of Bouncers!

[vr_owner]

the bouncers have no power to stop the people keying your car. if the car was on the propety then you should be able to get the tapes, if not htey can refuse you,.

That's why I never park in front of a night club.
You also run the risk of someone denting it when there is a fight or some drunk leaving his dinner remains all over your car.
Sorry to hear that.

Or park in an out of the way car park with no security at all and have it broken into? A 10 grand sound system is a fairly big crim magnet... You just can't seem to win with a good car.

I'm just reporting it to the police, they can get the tapes, I have a 1.5 hour time frame this happened in so fairly sure the scum bags will be caught.

not the bouncers problem.
i'd never drive to a club let alone park it at the front door.
should have reported it to the police immediately.
at worst you pay your insurance excess and have it resprayed.

Sucks what happened, but like lots of other people have said, it's a bad place to park. Anywhere in close proximity to where alcohol is served is generally a bad idea. I have a friend who parked her car near Kings Cross (for those who know Sydney) and came back to find some drunk ****wit had jumped on the roof of her car and totally caved it in.

If you're going to the police (as you should), do it ASAP, because most security systems don't keep footage for very long, and if you leave it too long it's very likely that the footage will be taped over.

Don't expect the police to put much effort into this though, because compared to the other crimes they have to deal with, this really is small fry.

As for why people key cars? Some people are ****s. I don't think there is any better explanation than that.

What's the cost on a re-spray for a VY calais? Need to wiegh up making a claim and reporting it within the next 24 hours before I go to the police.

See making a claim when I'm 18 with a pretty expensive car is going to make my insurance even worst :bang:

I own a compressor and have all the encessary attatchments but have never tried spray painting anything. Is it easy to spray at home? If so any tips to help me out?

Cheers for all the help guys, PS Custom colour suggestions? Preferrably someone with a bit of photoshop experience (just make it dodgy and don't worry about shading... Monotone FTW!) with a few different colours?

Thanks again

PS My excess is $1200... Swear insurance companys really dont like young people, no matter how much we look after and respect our cars.

So as the story goes, some tool keyed my car (pretty deep, to the primer) right in front of the clubs brilliant security who didn't stop him.

Either way there is about 30 cameras pointed pretty much towards my car. So what is the legality of getting the security footage?

And thanks to the new ID scanning system they implemented up here I'll have a name in no time...

However whether the cops will do anything is a who knows.

Why do scumbags have to key a car?!?!

/rant

Sorry I'm just pissed off...

Report it to the police. If you are lucky they may even investigate it. They are your best chance of getting any security footage.
