Damn, those are fantastic. :eyebulge: I DL'ed them so I could flip them 180ÂşJust a couple of photos showing off what a good paint correction, polish, and a coat of CQuartz can do for your Black Stang. These pics are about 8000 miles old now, but the cquartz is still shiny as it was day one and hasn't lost any of its water shedding ability. Can provide more photos by request.![]()
Bastards! Did you have a dash-cam with park-mode ?This happened
More damage on the passenger side. And hood.
I think we all would! What happened or better said how did this happen?I miss my car :(
The car was "vandalized". the Police suspect someone tried to steal it and once they couldn't get in they just beat on it with a bat. the driver side window is shattered. the seat is ripped. there are dents in the driver door and passenger door. windshield shattered. hood dented. ventilation system is covered in glass dust and needs to be replaced. rear window shattered. bumper dented. fuel door pried open and there is a white residue on the inside. the deck below the rear window is also dented from where the bat went through. left rear was blown by the tow truck driver and rim was damaged when it was towed. I haven't started it yet for fear of sugar or something in the gas tank and don't want to blow my engine. insurance wont cover dropping the tank and flushing it so I have to pay 1500 to have that done and fuel lines replaced as a preventative measurement.I think we all would!

Edit: Found your thread, that sucks man, good luck with the fix!
Man sorry to hear all of that, also sad to give up on a car due to the impact of others.The car was "vandalized". the Police suspect someone tried to steal it and once they couldn't get in they just beat on it with a bat. the driver side window is shattered. the seat is ripped. there are dents in the driver door and passenger door. windshield shattered. hood dented. ventilation system is covered in glass dust and needs to be replaced. rear window shattered. bumper dented. fuel door pried open and there is a white residue on the inside. the deck below the rear window is also dented from where the bat went through. left rear was blown by the tow truck driver and rim was damaged when it was towed.

oh and also scratches all over the place because there was so much glass that was shattered. all in all, insurance quoted 11k in damage and has sent me a check to cover it. now there is more popping up and I need to submit a suplimentary claim to cover about 1200 more in damage. the wheel was found to have ripped leather, the driver side trim panel has tons of scratches in the plastic and cloth.
its just a fucking nightmare. :tsk:
edit - between this and the three times I have been rear ended the car could have been totaled.
3k the first time. 1200 the next and 1500 the third. now over 12k. $17,700.00 total in damage to this car that I paid 32k for. im over it. ready to sell and take a hit and buy a ducati or something. the thing that really pisses me off is I try to take such good care of it. I haven't hit anything only been hit by other people. I wash every week, wax every month. shampoo the seats once ever 3 months. and bad shit keeps happening. really discouraged right now.
They obviously had an electronic device with them as the alarm did not go off. I locked and armed the car after I found it, reached into the driver side door and opened it and the alarm chirped but did not go off.Man sorry to hear all of that, also sad to give up on a car due to the impact of others.
I'm in a pretty safe neighborhood here, although for some parts of my country I'm keeping my 20 year old bruised BMW around, just in-case I have to be somewhere that I don't trust.
But in your case it almost sounds like the car was vandalized for fun, since who will bring a bat to steal a car. I would think that car thief's are a bit more professional than that. Did you find any witnesses or nearby camera's you could possibly check?
Again good luck man!
Dang man, I feel for you.This happened
