Three weekends ago, I drove my car to college, and have been parking in a private garage off campus, as I couldnt get a spot on campus, plus I thought it was too risky. Some of you might have read my thread about that. So i keep the car off campus during the week, but it can be on campus for the weekend without a pass, so every weekend I bring it on campus so I have it whenever I need it. So I noticed that my fears of on campus parking came true. I now have a 10 inch scratch/scuff on the right side of my back bumper. The biggest most noticeable part is what I would call a scuff, and it feels like it is on top of the paint, as in, it could probably buff out. However, above that there is a pretty deep scratch, that I am really worried about.

What do you all think would be the best/cheapest way to go about fixing this??

 

aside from crappy drivers on a college campus, (which is the reason i park all alone when i can, far away from other cars) there are also vandals.

today i was walking to my car in the parking lot. there is one other girl that has a b6 that parks in the same lot i do. i saw her car and noticed someone had spraypainted a nice black stripe all the way down the passenger side.

happy halloween.

i couldn't believe it when i saw it.

grrr.

 

Yikes, that 'goof off' stuff can be used on spraypaint... but it is harsh stuff... so it should be used by a knowing body.

 

Really hate tossers like that. Noticed this morning someone tried to steal the badge off the back of my avant. It's now half loose with some nice scuff marks on one side.

 

Its jealous little *******... I came out yesterday to find my step-grandads car with what looks like a scourer pad scraped all down the offside. I was not happy. Itsd a corsa FFS. Over 10 years old. Not even something to be jealous of.... *******. I'd love to get my hands on them. The thing that bugs me more though, is that if it was a car thrief, you have a motive, something they did if for. A vandal does it for no reason at all. Fecking pond life.

 

Similar thing happened to my neighbour. He drives a long in the tooth astra estate and a few weeks ago went out one morning to find some sod had keyed it all the way round. Don't understand these ******** one bit.

 

Just let me get on a jury, where one of these d**kheads is charged with damaging loads of cars!

I'd give them the Singapore treatment, if it were up to me! (Six lashes for each scratch)!
Then, they'd have to buy replacement cars (and work off the costs, if they don't have the cash). We're too darned lenient in America.

 

NRA stickers go a long way in keeping vandals away from your car.

 

boy am i glad i get a garage to park my car in. get some barbed wire and surround your car every night. hahahahah that will show em

 

school parking lots are trouble... there are definitely haters who wont hesitate to let you know what they think of your car. then there are the careless/people in a hurry who arent careful with their doors.
