Eddie, yes I know Rye Brook quite well and it's quite an affulent area. I'm shocked as to why somebody would do this to your car; the same thing happened to me, believe it or not, about a week and a half ago, at the Palisades Center Mall in Nyack ... unfortunately it was pouring rain and dark, so I didn't get a chance to look over the car as I would normally do, and they only got the right side .. #($%*(#$%*#

Insurance may just cover for "blending" and not a full repaint. Since the car paint is still new, you should not have any problem with blending. I had an old black Lexus LS once and did the blending job. At night when you shine a flash light at it, you can see the blending because of the old and new black paint.

Don't let the situation get to you . . . because one bad event will lead to two goo events. Most people don't realize this because they focused on the back event too much and get blinded by the good events that happen thereafter.

Honestly, I don't know what is worse, a keyed car or a car that is creaking and rattling.

We go through so much to drive these cars. Here's a perfect example of a man who most likely respects other people's property, and comes out froma movie and finds someone has done the unthinkable, and ruined his car. I really hate the people out there that key. As a car guy, i would never since so low to key a car. It's against all I stand for. My older cars were once keyed, and i decided to get the key mark fixed, only to have it happen again.

My advice...see if you can buff out the marks. if not, get it repainted, then get the windows tinted. Might make someone think twice before the do it again, since they cannot see right into the car to see if someone is in it.

I really feel your pain. I am goign through my own issues with rattle in the 530. I hope you get your car fixed, and expeience some peace dude. We all deserve to enjoy are hard earned toys in life.

Can't say it didn't cross my mind ... either that or introduce them to my Louisville slugger. I guess Im just thankful that nobody I care about was hurt... guess Im starting to think rationally again - It isn't easy though!

No, no licensed pistola unless they pull the edged weapon or whatever on you and you were in fear of your life with no way to retreat!


If you have a cell phone with a camera (even junior high school kids have these nowadays)(yes, easier said than done) take a pic of the mope also make sure you can articulate his/her physical desciption for the po po.


I've thought about this scenario many times over, 1st if i caught someone in the act i'd

1) Pretend as if i was a passerby and watch from afar

2) May or may not approach (depending on how many there are and if a car was waiting for them nearby) They might be there for the airbag or headlights etc. get spooked and to spite you key your car.

3) Call 911 if the act in fact is taking place IN FRONT OF MY EYES

4) I don't recommend this but be ready to roll if need be

5) Place a 2nd 911 call since the badguy will be lumped up!

I feel really bad for you and your baby. Some morons that obviously have nothing better to do. God forbid they should do something constructive with their idle mind time.
