So this isn't the happiest of stories. I met a guy who was bringing me down a new fuel pump to replace the leaking one. He had to come down my way to go to a tile story. I popped over and while I was inside:

Stupid Mother F-ers. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/finger.gif)

Don't you wish had almight powers, and could catch the perps in the act! And then take sword and amputate one of their hands at the writst right then and there.

And then finally whisper in their ear.... that'll make you think about doing this next time!

I have demented thoughts like that sometimes when I see grafiti sprayed on a fence or building.

Some people got no respect!

Sorry for the crap you gotta go through to get that fixed. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

Nice 914... it looks like it has a 911 body kit on it.

Regards,

That sucks!!! I feel for you!

I had just got my 911 back from a full black paint job and some kid smashed a pack of gum down and smeared it all over the driver side door! It discolored the paint and was never the same!!

Son of a bitch....

Sorry Kim. I cannot believe the lack of respect people have for others and their property these days. But you can lock all your stuff up 24x7.
Damn.

And I get ballistic when I see a new small scratch or whatever on my black boxster. Sorry to see, that almost as bad as seeing a full blown fender bender.
People just have no respect, your right mike.

Regards,

Yeh, my first thoughts weren't 'gosh, there's someone who just needs a little guidance". Well, maybe a special kind of guidance.

But I'd never screw up a 914 with a goofy body kit like that one! But she's a decent 914 parts hauler! (the 914 content -- on the passenger seat is the 914 fuel pump. lol)

Kim, I'm so sorry that happened.

I wonder what goes through someone's mind when they decide to do thousands of dollars of damage to someone's car? Do they have so much misfortune in their life that they have to destroy someone else's good fortune?

I am so sorry to see your car keyed.

Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house is too often forgotten in our society.

Instead of people being happy for those that have done well, they are jealous, viscious and cruel.

Its times like this that make you wish you had a samurai sword and the goon who did this was about 3 feet away!

Sorry to see it.- Joe

Yeh it does. The last pic, of the fender is the deepest groove. You can see bits of clear coat and paint, that were chipped out in the scrap, still hanging on the car. When I first arrived at the car there was perhaps 4 times that amount of chipped bits. (I drove about a mile to get home where the digicam was)

It really does suck. It's not that the paint on the car is perfect -- but this was definitely the good side.

But it's better than an accident. No bending/etc. Since it was vandalism, I reported it to the SJ police. You do it online at http://www.sjpd.org. (I mistyped it the first time as www.sfpd.org -- not quite the same....) Anyway, the have a car vandalism section, and of the 3 options, one is "key/scratching". I guess this happens enough to warrant it's own section. (dunno what to say about that....) Next we get to see if insurance is in love with me or not.

But thx for the good words folks. Takes my frustration level down a notch, so I probably won't whack a neighbor's kid today. Or kill a fuel pump challenged 914!

Out to the driveway for todays therapy session!

A fender bender is an accident.

This was deliberate by a little punk. And people wonder why I have a gun?

Dude that really sucks.

Somebody keyed my wife's new (to us) Land Cruiser a week ago too. It's not as bad as yours, but still plenty bad. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

Hum..

New paint job.

Who else do we know that has a decent 911/930 to park out there.. I'm sure we could get them to do it again and catch them.

How long where you inside ?? Did you see any kids snooping around ??
