A) I hope you like jail, because if you touch that guy even in highschool he can press charges.

B) That would almost insure he's gonna **** up your car on a daily purpose.

C) You better be sure you can kick his @ss or you'll probably be going to the hospital.

The sugar in the gas tank sounds like a good idea, but so does striping the paint, and the glass etching. Sounds like you have some big choices to make :-).

by the way, if you know it was indeed him, make sure you hurt him so much that he can't or won't retiliate ever cuz you for sure got A LOT more to lose here. Just imagine you let out his tires next week and then he came back and sit on your hood ..... yes, your aluminum hood !! It is gona hurt you a lot more than it is gona hurt him. So if you are gona do something about it, make sure pay him back 10 fold. If you have enough witness, you might as well call the police and have them pull him in and scare the CRAP out of him so he will never try anything on you again.

This comes from experience...My girlfriend(and her friends) did this to me in High School... Write on it with lipstick..and nice cheap, greasy red is recommended. Its a bitch to get off because it just smears with soap and water. It takes Hot water and soap, or gasoline/kerosene to get it off...and the wax job as well<G>. Nothing permenant...just a days work.

PS: I got even, I married her!

aww! Thats sooooooo cute!!!!! I love little romance stories as such!

Anyho--back to the topic on hand...Putting stuff in his gas tank is the best idea i'd say...Just make sure your finger prints are no where on the car!!!

at the college i go to, i park waaaaaaaay by the end...around the same people for the most part everyday. I've had no problems until some bitch flung open her door, missing mine by about () that much, then slammed her backpack on my hood!! WTF?! My ex's roomate saw it and called me after he yelled at her for awhile...All he said to her was, "you better be glad the girl that owns this car didn't see that.." I would have knocked a bitch out!

Sugar in the tank, potato in the exhaust pipe, I've heard those processed cheese slice singles can do some damage to the paint. Paint peeler, glass etching, deflated tires all good ideas but what's going to stop him from coming back next week and doing the same to your 8.
But nothing wrong with a good ol' fashioned *** kicking, maybe slap him around with a carp, have a bucket of fish guts standing by (preferably one that's been sitting around in the sun all day) to top him off with.

Ok then, you could put a ping pong ball in his tank. After he drove for a while theoretically it would be pulled to the bottom of the tank that would keep the fuel from coming out of the tank, so the car would stop running. Once he let the car sit a while, the ball would float back up to the top and he could get it to run again. I doubt he would know that your car would be doing this, and probably wouldn't show during a short drive with his dealer. I don't think he would know that you did that because they would find no problem with the car, and he doesn't know that you know that it was you who did that to his car. I know that at my son's school they have cameras over the parking lot to prevent these sort of things from happening.
