Went out 2 my car today to wash it and to add to my lovely scratch some1 kindly put on my drivers door about 2 months ago I now have 1 to match on the back wing and front wing 2. Went tot he police but nothing they can do apart from keep it on record from my previous visits. Im so angry. Why do ppl feel the need to do this 2 other ppls property? 
And does anybody know where u can buy the cctv stuff to have at your window. Remember a guy at Max Live selling them for about £100 or so.

A camera will not stop the car getting keyed , only a garage will, just because theres a camera it doesnt take 5 mins to cover a face up and also even if they dont and you pass the video to the police and they catch him , he will just get pissed off and come back and burn the car out or something , it is just something you have to live with.

Still going 2 have 2 get a full respray now tho prob. Theres a goldy pearlescent thru my paint and wen I just got my car back from bodyshop few weeks ago after respraying bumper and bonnet they couldnt match my paint properly and its lighter than rest of the car. So now Id end up with a two tone pink car!

I had this done at xmas 2 wen my car was red. Was going out with my EX at the time and sum1 had it in for him so decided to write he was gay on my bonnet in massive letters. Thot that was well out of order. We found out who done it but they were 14 so the police couldnt charge him. Prob sme guy who has done my car twice wen its pink.
Next week going 2 look into getting a garage 2 keep the Tigra safe and jsut use my runaround car all the time. If sumthing happens 2 that im not bothered as long as foxy is safe

Some knob on a motorbike nearly ran into the back of me once, two days later had 4 slashed tyres and 'think bike' keyed in big letters on my bonnet. Suffice to say when I finally catch up with him he'll have no fingers left. Some lovely people about these days Hope you catch the little cowards

People can be such cunts. But to be honest, having a modded car on public display at home is a bit silly - get it garaged if you can!

I went out one morning to find a nice scratch in C13's wing, not deep enough to have been done by keys, but deep enough not to polish out, so we put it down to damn cats wondering about over my car

scratches aint too bad, just wait till they start kicking the bodywork and smashing your windscreen with golf clubs
