That shit is just ignorant. There are three things you don't fuck with: a man's girl, a man's house, and a man's car.

Just feel confident knowing the pussies who did this will prob end up in jail one day and regardless will live a worthless life.

Man, how violated you must feel. Make sure that the car is repaired to your complete satisfaction. Check it out with a magnifying glass that all panels are 100% like you want them, and the lights are replaced. I cannot believe that the damage only tallied $4k. Those tail lights are $500 alone. Tires another $600 (mounted).. then paint the whole car...

Suggestion, if more than a third of the panels were damaged, make sure you get a complete paint job. Chances are greater that you'd have differing surfaces if you do not paint the whole thing.

Simply disgusting, I never understood why the thought of keying or knifing cars would cross anyone's mind. I hope these little pukes get caught and get a criminal record out of it. Bye Bye potential careers!

Because they KNOW how much it hurts, and they know people who own expensive cars don't consider the damage "fixed" after a trip to the body shop, they consider the damage has been "hidden".

Man that sucks!
No doubt, if you have no enemies that hate you enough, it's just stupid fucking kids. Dumbasses are raised nowadays to not respect anything. Too dumb to think of anything other other than trashing a BMW to get their kicks.
Find a place with a garage if you can. You have my sympathies

Damn that sucks. At my old university the school had adopted a policy that if you were caught vandalizing they would take an entire gradepoint off your GPA. Needless to say the problem stopped fast.

I feel for you man, when you really like your car it really hurts when it gets damaged.

That is just bad. Sorry to see this, it makes me sick looking at it. Go next door and start asking questions (with a baseball bat) to find who was there. track them down, alert the police.

I was 14 once and had my goped (and my friends) taken from us by older kids trying to beat me up. Few weeks go by after police reports, and they are arrested for killing a lama with a golf club in my area. Turns out they went to my school. I got in on it, they also got robbery added to their crim records. Plus we found our gopeds, sued for $$$ (which I got) for damages. They were fu*ked.

Dont give up yet, keep looking bro... good luck!

I just can't think of anyone that would have it out for me like that, prolly best not to stress over it
Had to be someone from the party then...I would confront who ever held the party in your complex (eventho it will get you no where unfortunatly) sorry to see that happen = (

Well, at least this makes me feel a little better about my wife backing into my car in the driveway...

I feel for you, man, I truly do.

Just looking at that makes me furious. That's one of the big things I won't miss about college. I hope you find out who did it.

Damn that just sucks. It's one thing to damage your car while you're out driving it, but to have it screwed with while it's parked is just wrong. Hopefully the cops catch the idiots, but we all know it's not very likely.

Damn, that absolutely sucks. The idea of posting a reward for information around the complex or campus isn't a bad idea, but hopefully it wouldn't prompt someone to come back and further damage the car. As much as I hate to say it, having a nice car while at college seems to be more of a problem these days with vandalism becoming more rampant.
