Default Weird Vandalism

I have a black Lingenfelter 2001 Z06 lowered and blacked out including the rims and I've had it roughly three years. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem. I would say roughly every three months or so I come back to my car after parking it in a public area (completely legaly not taking up exta spaces or anything) to find it covered in soda with or without the cup on the ground beside it. I have moved three times since I've had it and i dont have any enemies or anything that I know of. Especially none that follow me all over the country to the places I move. This happened about 8 or so times now and twice within the last week and the car was park in two seperate places on these occasions at more that 30mi apart. So what is it? Does anyone else have this problem? If so is yours moded or does it look stock? Or should i start looking for people I might have unknowingly pissed off?

Haven't had this happen to me. When you catch them, make sure to have some rope, a couple cans of their favorite soda to glaze them with, and the location of a good sized ant bed.

With a black C4 I had someone in my apartment complex put out a cigarette on the newly painted hood. Left a big mark and they left the cigarette there for me to clean up. I never talked to anyone at that place so I guarantee I didn't **** anyone off.

I think much has to do with the demographics of the area in which you park and time of day. I don't leave mine long when doing erands so they'd have to be quick to get it. I also don't tend to leave it out at night.

Call C.S.I. and within 45 minutes, excluding commercials, they'll run a DNS test and have the guy in new bracelets!

Liberals.

I would guess you have a USMC/veteran/base sticker somewhere on your car.

I was going to suggest a woman and/or a hippie, sounds like something they would do.

Maybe this, or are you driving like a jerk? Either are quick ways to get someone to do something nasty like that. When the problem follows you, it just might be something you're doing

I love the sound of my Borla stingers but a bat to the side of the head of the person doing it would sound equally nice.....
