ok??? why on earth.

[seth00008]

ok,, so i go into work at about 4pm and get out at 9pm. somtime between 5 and 7:30 some a** hole kicked in my passanger door and paintballed my car,

the funny things is my car was unlocked and the windows were down so why didnt they steal anything?

anyone know why someone would do that and whats a good stress reliever because hitting things isnt my knuckles are bloody from that allready and kinda hurt

[bmx-guy]

that sucks dude...have ya pissed anyone off? haha that would be the only thing i could think of...i know some people that have done that before but the person screwed over my buddy real bad, so he kinda had it coming...but they didn't kick in the door...and if the windows were down and doors were unlocked they would have jacked anything and everything of value

some people are like you said: a-holes. That blows. If I ever found out who did it I would give them the smackdown of their life. If you have collision on your insurance then that will take care of it. Otherwise you will have to go junkyard hopping and end up with a car like mine.

The reason they paintballed instead of stole is that paintballing a car is a misdemeanor and theft is a felony. The punishment gets way worse.

Hopefully your insurance will fix it without any problems.

actuall beaters, as long as they didn't literally "break" into the car, it's not actually as bad as if they did actually break through a window...first car i had i was parked out front of my parents place in a small little town, and normally i locked my car and took the faceplate off my deck, but in the morning came out and my sunglasses, any large change i had, and my faceplate was gone (the deck itself was still there though :S ) and when i went to the cops it turns out i wasn't the only victim of it on the same night, but they weren't breaking any windows or anything so the cop said even if they caught the guys they would have only been charged with suspicious behavior or something like that

[seth00008]

hmm,, well i have liability so they wont do anything and if they do they will charge an arm + leg for the foot size dent, so does anyone know any good ways to get it out?

[8695Beaters]

There is a pulling tool that you basically glue to the panel and pull. I've never used it, but that might work. If it's shallow, there is also a suction cup puller that I have used. I think my dent was too old (it was on my hood that I bought used and the dent had been there for over 2 years) though, so it didn't work very well. If the dent isn't bad, I'd say use the suction cup. It's like $8 at Pep Boys. The other puller is $20. They only work on dents that are smaller than a melon, so remember that. If you want to do some digging, take off the interior panels and give it a good smack with a rubber mallet. That will work the best but will take a day.


BMX, if they stole something and someone saw them, that's plenty of evidence, espeically if you can prove what's yours is yours. For a bunch of dumb kids, it's not worth it. someone popped my friend's Civic door handle and stole his radio, sunglasses and cds while he was away, so I know how it works.

sorry to hear about that seth, it must be someone you upset at some point or another... maybe someone you accidentally cutoff on the road and they followed you so they know where you park your car. good luck on getting it fixed, hope it goes well.

[8695Beaters]

Nah a paintball gun is just a bunch of stupid kids. A few years ago a bunch of idiots went up and down the road and smashed cars with golf clubs. They just did it for kicks, not becuase they were pissed at anyone. Probably some ricer who decided they couldn't beat you in a race so they decided to take it out on your car instead.

[bmx-guy]

yea if there were witnesses that's true, cuz it happened to me at night when everyone was asleep so that's why i said that, i wasn't thinking during the middle of the day...but yea, good luck getting that looked after dude
