Casinos usually have to have extensive video surveillance systems because of gaming regulation,security claims, theft etc. Go over to the casino and ask to speak to the Director of Security. They more than likely will help you. It is in their best interest to keep customers feeling safe so they come back and spend more money.

For those that think people are all good and wouldn't possibly think of vandalizing another persons car, I have 2 reasons that you need to wake up. 1973 Grand Torino Sport in perfect condition parked 20 spaces from the closest car in grocery parking lot. I get back to the car and on the driver's side rear quarter is a clear foot print mark and nasty dent. You could see the heel and rest just like a foot print. Still nothing else near the car. Next, 2004 Black terminator Cobra, again perfect shape. Parked at a bar to see a (night) hockey game. Next day I see what looks like a scratch on the rear bumper. Look closer and the lower facia is broken. The I see a scuff mark next to the break and realize that some low-life booted the bumper. No chance that is was another car based on the small area of the scuff.
If you've never had a car vandalized count your blessings because it is a sickening feeling to think people would ruin someone else's property like that. It happens... Jealousy, camaro vs mustang people, mustang haters, etc. That said, I have no idea what happened in this case.
To the OP, I would get a lawyer, or your insurance company to call the casino and 'suggest' that it would be in their best interest to release the security video. Good luck and let us know what you find out.

No way...

Some little old lady needed to tie her combat boots 100’ from the entrance. While tightening up the laces she had to apply excessive force on you car as she needed to brace herself that unfortunately damaged your car. She also has dementia and forgot about it or I’m sure she would have left a note... This also applies to the second instance.

Actually I’m rather amused at the fervent stance by some that it can’t be vandalism. Really, among performance cars and drivers? This has been going on as long as I’ve been driving and I’m an old man now.

I didn't explain how it happened because I do not know.. The evidence, which is likely on camera according to the OP, seems to be being held close by the casino

I stated how it did NOT happen... that is a tear in the metal along with accompanying smudge mark from being hit by what is likely another vehicle... not a cut with a pair of snips.

Your comprehension sucks...which would make you the joke.
My comprehension is fine. I understand English as well as Spanish. If you wanna continue to throw insults back and forth, I can do that with the best of them. Just let me know how big of an asshole you feel like being today. You are on the right track already.

Guys let’s just scale it back a bit. And remember the OP had the front of his car bashed in and we didn’t. So give him a break...


I don’t want this locked as I want to find out what happened in the end...

The fact that you cannot read and understand what I wrote, but would rather twist it into painting me as someone who “knows what happened”... isn’t my problem... and it doesn’t make me an asshole.

We have one image and it isn’t evidence of anything other than that there is impact damage to the vehicle. It could be a deliberate smash and run, it could be a senile old lady. Or anything in between. Without camera footage, it’s all conjecture.

Wow. That looks like my old South Shore neighborhood!
I guess the map gives it all away. SLI of Florida I guess must mean Boca Raton.

Maybe you keep pissing people off? It might not be Random Acts of Vandals.

This may explain much...


You as a driver of a performance car may not even know you are pissing people off and then you come across someone in a bad mood. I asked for it back in the day and got it back but it was all good fun and nobody - as in nobody - got hurt, but the cars were another matter.


Coming up to a light and acting like a big shot gunning your motor may seem not that bad to you, but might really piss off someone else, especially if they are in a performance car too. Especially a GT Mustang! Gunning a 12 cylinder Ferrari at the light is entertainment and an experience for some. Doing it in a Mustang makes you look like some arrogant asshole who needs to be put in his place.


So that could happen.


But sometimes your nicely washed and fixed up car also rubs people the wrong way just sitting there... They know you love your car and a quick and dirty way to really stick it to you is to vandalize the thing when nobody is looking.

I love vandalism when I instigated it on the road. In my previous car I was out with a very attractive woman (I even know who did it as he was eyeballing me when me and my girl got out of the car), came back to find another deep scratch about 6” long on the hood! But I loved that! Because I knew what cause it. I had the hot chick and they didn’t, and every time I look at it I felt good. But even door dings when it was just inconsideration by someone getting out of their car, pisses me off to no end! It means nothing to me personally and is just damage to my car! I know that sounds f**ked up but that is how it all worked in my mind. Dueling scars are conversation pieces. The scrape on the hood because I had the hot chick and they didn’t was like an “accent piece” for the car...

Here is another real life story of deliberate vandalism. These two guys ran a company together and one of the partners bought this green Corvette with a tan leather interior. He loved that thing and one day found this long gouge all the way down the side of the car. Past the paint and outside skin of the fibreglass, really deep - this was no shopping cart rolling down some hill! Man was he pissed!

I ran into him like ten years later and one of he first things he said to me was that he found out who scrapped the side of his car - it was his business partner! :crackup: Yup, so a lot of it is deliberate and nobody gets scratched off the suspect list!

Had mine vandalized last week. Someone deliberately slammed a grocery buggy into the front right side of my front bumper then for good measure kicked my front right fog light in.

I doubt he pissed anyone off. Just some scum with control issues who is jealous and thinks no one else should have anything nice because they don't. The problem in the present day world (two of the many), is selfishness and lack of respect for others and their property.

That is what I worry at times when I park my car.

Probably somebody with entitlement issues, thinks he deserves one just because he wants one, even though he won't do the work to earn it.

Yeah I'm thinking it's a jealousy thing. Debating whether to just get it fixed or go ahead and replace it with the Roush front fascia I have been looking at.
