Keys owned my car....=/ (Owned Pt 2)

i was at a local coffee shop here in austin and i was just minding my own business when i later found a big key mark on my passenger fender...i would say it was about 1.5 ft long. the key mark started out deep in the front of the car, and the person got lazy towards the end....

july definitely isnt a good month for me...my car got owned twice in one month....

Damn, I know how you feel. I'm in Austin and scared of getting keyed also. My last car (97 prelude) was keyed 10x worse, circles on hood, all of the drivers side. 500 deductible , 1,800 total for job.
Damn haters.

Dude, that's pretty strange, the same thing happend to a winning blue one here at work, it was less than a week old, but nevertheless, it got keyed the exact same way, sounds like we have a conspiracy going on here, what a chickenshit thing to do anyhow, i hope they undertand that what comes around goes around

Damn, I'm really sorry to hear that. As for the goes around and comes around thing, oh man, that's the truth. I live in fear everyday about some stupid thing I did in the past coming back to bite me

One of my wife's co-workers just had her 3 day old Acura TL worked over with some sort of multi-pronged garden implement.
Went clear down to the metal on every panel except the rear bumper and the fuel filler.
Circles, lines and zig-zags, all in neat rows of three. Looked like Freddy Kreuger meets a spirograph.

That was in a private, limited access, secured underground parking garage under the office building itself. Probably kids that just walked into the lobby and waited for someone to get into the elevator with a pass card and rode along.

F*ckers got three other cars as well.

$3700 in damage on a 3 day old car.

Taka,

If you give up, Mazda South sent this guy to fix a couple of bumper-paint chips they put in my car while in the service dept. He picked my car up from my work location and brought it back a couple of hours later, good as new (ok nearly nearly...if you know where to look you can find one 1/4" piece of scuff mark that he missed...but you won't find it without gettin on your knees). He matched the paint and taped off the area to do a local re-spray of the bumper and buffed it.

I gather that he lives in Pflugerville, has a shop in South Austin. He picked my car up from NW Austin (Oak Knoll area) and worked on it at his parents (so he said...Braker area of 183).

EDIT: I have no connection with this guy, other than he fixed my car.
