So my 90 Iroc is my daily driver, has been for the past 3 years. Two weeks ago I park it outside a movie theater and come back to find it keyed all down the passenger side. My car is two toned and they hit the silver so it wasn't so noticeable, although I was upset. Then tonight I come out of Barnes and Noble Bookstore to find that it has been keyed again, same side but all down the black paint!!! Much more noticeable and even deeper (cant just be buffed out). I dont have any enemies i know would do this. Although I figure its probably random im still pissed! ...... end rant

Not recently, but I do have an ex that may do that if she happened to see my car somewhere.

I feel for you. When I was in high school I had a cheap old motorcycle. It looked ratty so I put some new shiny black paint on the tank, probably spent the better part of a week sanding, prepping, spraying, then color sanding and buffing until it was super shiney. I was proud, then some waste of a human keys it in a parking lot. I mean, who the hell keys a motorcycle tank. I guess some people get jealous, even when something is nice on a mere $300 motorcycle.

MrQuick, if you are ever nearby San Antonio, TX, I'm buying you a beer. :cheers:
Thank you for your contribution. Now I know I am not the only one that does that.
If more people helped impart street justice, there would be less punks trying to pull that crap.

File a police report asap and go back there to see if there is any surveillance cameras in the area. If there are cameras tell the Police right away due to the fact that some of the recorders do not retain the video for that long, some are only days. The sooner the better.

Maybe, my 3rd gens seemed to be bigger targets than anything else I have had.

I can't stand things like this. I went to the movies one night and got in my truck to leave and about 3 miles down the road it started to feel like a tire was going down, so I got out and changed a tire in the dead of night in the dark (I now carry a backup flashlight to the first flashlight). When I got the tire home, I further inspected it and it had a nice linear puncture that looked like a knife had been stuck through it. The guy at the tire shop confirmed it and then a few weeks later there was a story on the local news about the fact that about 30-40 cars in the area had been knifed. That is destruction of property, but if I had been on the interstate, it could have caused some real damage. I can't wrap my head around some people and the choices that they make.

It's either that ex, or you're the worst at parking in a parking lot spot ever.

I really know how you feel. Bought a 1989 Iroc after getting my BSEE in 3 years.Had it for a week and someone keyed both sides, the hood, hatch. Had to have the whole car repainted. They hit every panel. I was at a river raft place in Wisconsin so it was no one I knew. The only good thing about it was I did have one killer paint job when it was done.
I defintely feel your pain.

It's always the ones that you don't know, that do that type of stuff.
About 3 years ago I moved into a new condo complex with a "secure" underneath parking garage. Within 2 weeks of being there someone keyed almost every bodypanel on my car. Up to that point,I hadn't even driven it yet since the move, or even met anyone in the building.
After that, and about $9k, I got myself back my old parking in one of the other buildings I used to live in and got myself a new flamed four-tone paintjob
When life gives you lemons, you've got to add a little vodka and make the best of it!

Thanks for all the support guys, I totally think its the third gen curse! People just cant help but mess with it. I drove my Nova for years before this and not once did it ever get messed with and it was a much nicer car.

Now back in 86 I was in Indy going to Lincoln Tech, and I found an old plan to build an electro-shock alarm set up, multiple telephone capacitors tied into a magneto coil.
If you trip the motion sensor you get the full effect of several 5volt /several hundred thousand uf capacitors, and fed by 12.5 volt car battery and a trip circuit to recharge the first set when the drop circuit shuts first stage down.
Had guy put about 3 in scratch and the guy was on ground twitching.
His brother runs up saying we killed him, I told him no one was gonna steal my car or belongings. He says he will get into it and grabs the door handle,,,,,and pisses his pants and eyes start rotating counter clockwise,,,,and then he shook car again.
Cops came up an arrested both,,,,they had warrants for both on theft and vandalism charges against them.

That is cool but can and will get YOU arrested. I don't agree. You should be able to protect your property. I bar owner in Chicago kept getting robbed. He electrofied the window that was being used to break in, The burgler really gotted zapped. The bar owner was sued and lost to the crook. He was also arerested for attempted murder.
[I]also had a friend who kept getting his car stereo's ripped off. He welded razor blades around the perimeter of the radio. One morning he found a lot of blood and a few finger tips in his car. Never had another problem.'' Be carefull rigging booby traps. It can cost YOU! Sucks when crimials have more rights than the victoms.

Yeah! This is way too hard to believe it's random. Have you upset somebody with your driving or have an ex-girlfriend or ex-wife who hated your car? If your car is two-tone, it's really easy to identify and become an easy target when an upset person spots it out and about.
Just my opinion,

Because you wouldn't suspect her now. And guess what? It worked!
