Yo, that sucks!
Did they steal anything?
I know how you feel. Don't worry, get it fixed and you'll have a newly painted door and frame.
Happy new years dude.

The police cannot do much about it even if you report this incident...
Well, try to kept an eye on your/your friends' cars while partying is the only choice.. That's what I did yesterday night, lol

yeah i waived a police over right when he was passing by. he can't do anything as i did not see the person phyysically do it. i saw some guy with a hoody holding a metal bar walking away. thats all.
so does starlight or spotight do good paint jobs? i had donn dean before but my paint was never as good as oem paint as it started chipping

DAYUM my cars got broken into last night too.
There were a total of 4 cars at our house. 3 were ours and 1 was a friends.
The cars were 2007 Subaru Impreza, 1996 Dodge Caravan, 1998 Grand Am and a 2005 Civic SiR.
The guy only got into the van, grand am and the sir. Rummaged through stuff but didnt take anything...The Impreza was locked and wasnt broken into.
Weird thing is why didnt they take anything?! I had 2 pairs of Oakleys in the cars, and the SiR is totally modded out and had tons of valuable stuff in there.
Whatever, guess we were lucky.

I guess it wasnt really a BREAK in. The van and the grandam are usually unlocked (not anymore) and our impreza was luckily locked that night cause our garage door was having some issues, but it was closed. And my friends car, im not sure, i guess it was unlocked too cause he just stopped by.

sad as hell | dude... you know the worst part to this situation.. is that you have to deal with ICBC  ..
My GF got screwed over by ICBC... that old chinese guy hit my GF's car while she was parked.. the guy wasn't even driving his own car.. and in the end my GF had to pay like 3 grand i think.. Fcking ICBC..
He was so lucky i wasn't there.. it was bad enough he hit my GF's car.. but he was being an asshole to her acting like it was her fault she was parked lol.. but he was so lucky i wasn't there....
BUT anyways.. hope they don't screw you over.. Good Luck Bro!
