Keyed car problems anyone???

Just wondering if anyone is having problems with young teenaged punks keying their car? I guess it's the price we pay since this car appeals to the 16-25 age class...pisses me off though...4 months old...keyed.

I would think that getting your car keyed would be the direct result of something that you did to someone. Not just a random act, now I'm sure that it does happen.

But just because it appeals to a younger crowd I don't think that it is more likley to be keyed. Its more likley to be the corvette owner who you just spanked, haha.

If you count the key gouges used to steal the trunk emblem sure. Im pretty sure this one was random because I was at the gym when all the incoming freshmen were getting campus tours to the gym. Came out to the car and hey the trunk emblem looks funny... hey its because its just the glue and theres no emblem there anymore!

Back in 7th grade, my ex girl, me and a group of friends were walking home from the school bus. So my ex girl I guess to impress everyone, she took out her key and keyed about 10 cars down the sidewalk.

I felt bad for all those cars that got keyed and went off on her when we were alone.
So it could sometimes be a random act.

saw a kid with his keys out going toward my car with my buddy. Needless to say, he did not get up for a while. F&*^ vandals. They are some of the worst.
