My 8 got vandalized =(






So a few weeks ago I started to notice cigarette butts on the hood of my car. I live in a condo complex I have an assigned parking spot where I park my 8. There is a wooden fence that seperates some other condo's from my parking lot where I park. Once I figured out where the cigarettes where coming from I wrote a note and taped it on the ********* living room balcony window. Cigarettes finally stopped appearing on my car. So yesterday I was cleaning my car and the ******** came out and asked if I was the one who left the note, I responded yea, I would appreciate if you guys would stop throwing them over the fence. He replied oh okay I let my roomates know. (They look like some white trash scumbags and a bunch of low lifes). Anyways I woke up today to go to work and as I walk up to my car I see Hoe spary painted on the driver side, I couldn't beleive this was happening. Obviously those duchabgs did it after they seen me cleaning my car. So I called the police made a report and let them know who I beleive it was. After everything, I figured I would trying getting the paint off. So I borught out wax, polish, clay bar, water and Goo Gone. I started using Goo Gone and finished using it as it did the works got i clean off, watered it down, waxed it on top of that and there is was gone. So no I got a surveillance camera on my car and hopefully everything be good.

Let me know if you guys and girls have any usefull feedback.

Thanks,
Adam

A buddy of mine went through the same thing last year with his WRX. He had a white WRX with "N*****R" in hot pink on the back quarter. Came right out with Goo Gone. Now he swears by Mothers wax & polish even more. Just out of curiosity...what wax do you use?

That sucks but it is good that you got it off. I think they got your profession mixed up with the hookers on the corner... I guess they don't know better

What @#$#heads, that's sad. Good thing it came off, I assume the car was well waxed.

So what is going to keep them from doing it again.

Man that sucks! Glad it came off. I hate to say it, but this is most likely not the end of this. I know you put in a camera, but expect something else to happen. Will the condo give you another spot somewhere? I mean............they will find it anyway, but perhaps you can make it harder. I'm afraid they will just key it next......or worse.

3) get ready to have fun.

xsnipersgox you are such an instigator.

The other thing that would have worked well is WD40.

yeah, make sure you tape it ... that situation really sucks. Especially if they see your car cleaned up and decide to etch the next message instead of spraying it.

On a slightly related note:

Sounds like you live in the wrong neighborhood.

I would move.

The battle isn't over. They won't be satisfied, they will be back for more damage.
