Talking This is how a TL should NEVER look, my poor '03 was spray painted

I woke up this morning to find my baby all
messed up with spray paint...damn people
really do sink this low. I think it's random,
I have no enemies or ex-girlfriends, etc...
What's weird is that I live in a gated neighborhood,
but security still sucks. Heres all the pics,
It's all off now except a few spots on my tires.
I'm suprised the remover didn't damage my hood, oh well.
Oh, and i will be keeping my car in the garage now!!!!















I haven't modded my car yet, but sure plan on it, so I know the looks need work

hmm.. youre not alone. my car gets egged, dog fooded, floured, chocolate syrupped.. the lisst goes on.

i hate my neighborhood though, bunch of haters. but what i dont get is that i live in a very upscale town in northern jersey, where all the kids gets cars from their parents. nice ass ones too, i probably have the cheapest car!! which i bought myself, used... 99TL-P, no navi, been in accident so i got it for real cheap. every other kid in my town drives anything from BMW 3,5-Series and Lexus IS' to Hummers and Range Rovers to Mustang GTs and Camaro SS's.

why pick on the 6 year old acura???

your area may be upscale but the the people in it must be the as hell... sounds like you're in "the hood" or something.

I'd lose my shit if someone did that to my car. A quote from Pulp Fiction...

Vincent: Aw, man. You know what some fucker did the other day?
Lance: What?
Vincent: Fucking keyed it.
Lance: Oh, man, that's fucked up.
Vincent: Tell me about it. I had it in storage for three years, it was out for five days and some dickless piece of shit fucked with it.
Lance: They should be fucking killed. No trial, no jury, straight to execution.
Vincent: Boy, I wish I could've caught him doing it. I'd have given anything to catch that asshole doing it. It'd been worth him doing it just so I could've caught him doing it.
Lance: What a fucker!
Vincent: What's more chickenshit than fucking with a man's automobile? I mean, don't fuck with another man's vehicle.
Lance: You don't do it.
Vincent: It's just against the rules.

I don't think so, I just didn't know if this was a popular tire for our cars or if mine has them because it was bought used from a Chevy dealer.

almost all off, all that's left is some on the wheels/tires. The paint wasn't 100% dry yet so it came off with some scrubbing and chemicals...luckily not damaging my hood!

just a quick investigative question, was that black suv in the driveway all night too? if it was and it was untuched someone was singling you out dude, maybe you cut someone off or they are just a hater but if no other cars were touched it was you they wanted. Fill out a police report and have a camcorder ready incase they creep up on your house again you will have it all on tape and they will go to the booty house.

sucks that people are that immature to do something like that to someone elses property. atleast spray paint comes off pretty easy. (with the right chemicals). That same thing happened to a friend of mines new black maxima but they striped the car with white paint

I hope you filed a report with the police. It may have happened to someone else in the community. It's probably some punk kid who lives there who's a hater. Poor little rich kids. Boo hoo.

And thanks TLsu for the Pulp Fiction quote. Makes me wanna watch it tonight.

I... seriously... and i am not joking.... had a nightmare about this last night... I woke up and saw like 5 guys in our apt parking lot walking around with spray paint and spraying cars, and right when I look I see a guy moving for my car... I go to get my gun/badge/baton and commence the beatdown but I can't find anything, and for some reason the door is locked and I can't get out...

I woke up in a cold sweat... murder/pain thats fine, but fuck with my car and I wake up scared!!!

Yep, the z71 was in the driveway when it happened, and yes, i do think someone was singling me out. I filed a police report and i'm talking to every person I know if they know someone who has done this type of thing before. And the paint is all off! w00t!

Regular car wax should be able to take care of the spray paint on your paint finish. But I'm not sure how to take it out of the tires.

Get one of those block of pumice and rub hard. The paint will come off the tires.

good to hear bro... apply some polish/wax on your hood because im sure whatever stuff u used to clean the spray paint would have ate up the clearcoat too!

Before you go tearing up the Clearcoat with rubbing compound or anything else, go get you a claybar, you can pick it up at most auto parts places. Try claying it and it may take care of the problem. It will probably take some time, but claying can do miracles sometimes.

if that does not work, go to the body shop, don't jepordize your paint, let the pros take care of it!!
