I've read this thread 3 times and it makes me more sick each time I read it so I'll stop. Why the hell do people feel the need to do this? It's a shame that some people do not possess even the simplest form of decency and respect for the property of others. Best of luck with getting the mess cleaned up.

Another sad thing is , if they are caught , some ****** lawyer will get them a sweet deal and or the court will give them a slap on the wrist.

How dare you work hard and earn a nice car like that when others can't afford to drink beer and smoke pot everyday and have a nice car too.

Shame on you.

I hope you recognize sarcasm.

Absolutely sickening to hear. The interior is what gets me the most. What a mess. Sorry about your luck, and I hope everything gets repaired better than new!

Unbelievable....

Looking back is easy, but did ya call the cops?

They had to have gotten some of that paint on them throwing all over your car(?)

Not sure where you stopped to eat, but any chance the parking lot had cameras?

Stating the obvious, you probably already thought of this....

Un-freakin-believable! I've heard of guys getting slurpies or coke dumped in their convertables with the top down, but who the hell carries household paint around with them?!?! There's no way to avoid this sort of jackassery either because it could happen litterally anywhere. For what it's worth, I'd use this as an opportunity for some upgrades - good luck!

Look for the empty paint can. Preserve as evidence, take fingerprints, find dirtbags then make them swallow a gallon of latex paint.
