Wtf!

Let me first off say that I never owned a newer car before in my life. Well after one week of ownership of a SI im sure questioning it. Tonight I went to Target to pick up some things and parked in the very back for safety reasons. Well these guys where eyeing my car and me. I was thinking they where car enthusiasts so I smiled and kept walking. Well I walked back to find out they threw a grocery cart straight at my back bumper and scratched it, aswell as throwing a vanilla shake all over my roof. I cant ******* stand shit like this. Im not sure if they where jealous that im young and have a new car, or what. I'm tempted to take off my JDM Honda emblems, and greddy exhaust just to not stand out as much so more people wont want to mess with me. I havent even got into the mysterious nickel size ding I came across by my gas cap 3 days ago. This is the first car that I bought, and treat it like a porsche going out everymorning cleaning the windows and shit and now whenever I look at it and see dings it drives me nuts. I'll post some pics tomorrow, and sorry. Had to rant somehow.

Sorry to hear OP.

Best bet is to go see Target Security. You just might be lucky and see what cars these guys drive and might grab license plate #.

First mistake, never park far away from other cars, you are more likely to get it vandalized as there will be no one around to see it happen.

I feel your pain, but after the first few nicks/scratches you get over it. Scratch X is your friend.

This is the curse of the SI....MILLIONS OF HATERS. But yet the SI stands out just enough to always get noticed. So its a tough car to own.
