so tell me this what makes you think they not goin to strike again........ once youve spent all this money on "redoing" the paint how you know that the person or persons in question are not goin to strike again.... suggest a confrontation is best get old skool on um LOL
I thought that myself, that's why the car has been moved well away from where I live now and by the time it's back on the road I won't be living there anyway...and I'm going to be putting it in a garage when I move
As good a reason as any for learning to do your own work. I don't trust many people to do work for me, there's too many cowboys out there. I'd rather tackle it myself and learn as i go along. As for the paint stripper, there's just no need for that. Some people really have no respect and there's only one solution in my book and it doesn't involve the police (hopefully).
I had a car covered in brake fluid once... left most of my paint job on the garage forecourt when I went to jet wash the car off, not nice, my sympathies are with you, but for me I even knew who did it... and the Police, wouldn't do a thing...... there's always time for me to get a little of my own back.....
you have heard this a million times but my sympathies are with you. there are some real degenerate stupid looking cu**s in the world who take great pride in ruining your day, just gotta get payback really. revenge is a dish best served cold (obvioulsy you have to find out who did it first??) hope it all gets sorted quickly and cheapily for you.
gotta be the wrong identy thing, theres kids messying about but i dowt they'd take it that far to a radem car, my mouth droped when i saw that i cant belive someone would do that for sh*ts n gigles. could it be the worst paint mixer person and worst paint degrading ever?
Thats well ahrsh mate. Keep it fix it keep the MK2 alive. If you find out who did run over there head
knobs i know how you feel,had mine done three years ago with gloss paint in three colours dont stop doing what you enjoy carry on dubbing.
That is really terrible. So gutting when stuff like this happens. I feel for you. I wouldn't rule out vandalism though. A polo parked right behind my golf was pretty much entirely covered in red gloss paint about six months ago. Luckily none got on the golf. There were red gloss trails for about 100 yds down the street to where someone had put the paint cans out for the bin. There are enough idiots around to do this sort of thing without you needing to annoy anyone unfortunately.
Thats bad news mate , i have got a spare bonnet if your one is too far gone , i live in Brackley as well. if your interested give us a private message?. Brackley had a lot of car vadalism a few months back , kids with nothing better to do???[:^(]
Sticking up for the Police Guys, As much as though the Police would like to get the bar stewards who did this to his car, there's on vital thing that they need and that's EVIDENCE!! By that I mean any forensic evidence, fingerprints, DNA etc, then there's any witnesses and any CCTV. Without any of the above there's nothing they can do. I know it's a ****er that some mindless tw*t has damaged his car, but the Police can't do anything without any evidence. What probably doesn't help is that it was done in the early hours of the morning and no doubt the Old Bill are either under staffed in that area or dealing with other urgent business. They'll come again and get some summary justice, I've no doubt about that. Passattdi
I Know The Feeling Of Finding My Car Like That Back In September Last Year. Turned Out To Be My Ex,s Boyfriend.
