Vandals and Evos

I parked in San Francisco last night and found a hotdog wrapper under my wiper, and then this odd scratch on my lip (OEM option)

Do you think it would have been caused by someone kicking it? Or possibly rocks from the freeway (some kind of dirt stain in line with it on the foglight cover you can see in the pic)



You guys ever get people following you around to mess with your Evos? I bought this car to drive around because it attracts less attention than my other car, but it's looking like that's not true. Only 200 miles on my 2014 man...

I would not trust SF Street parking. It could also be a bike pedal mark if you were street parking and someone with a bike decided to use the space in front of your car to j walk or something.

What is your other car?

And sorry to hear about the vandals. I would buff the s*** out of the scratch to reduce its visibility as best you can. That's a downside to WW.. Scratches don't look good period, but stand out a lot more on certain colors.

I had someone throw a german chocolate cupcake at my Evo when it was parked on the street one time. The frosting mark left on my window was delicious.

Looks like the mark could have come from a Skateboard.

could be anything there. Could be intentional damage....or you could have had something kick up and hit you while driving.

SOMA...it was near the grand nightclub so I guess I shouldn't have been surprised.

What's with everyone's Evos getting food thrown at them? I've never had this problem before.
