kevinblah, im a junior too. so does your school have assigned parking or do you just park close? i park the farthest away and try to get out of school the fastest. And if anyone threatens to key my car, which happens alot, i just bring my other car.
Yea i wouldn't ever wanna key a gangsta car. (i would never key anyway). I'm getting my windows tinted in a week or so, so that might help for the gangsta look a little bit. I'm getting 20% on back 3 windows and 50% on front two. I probably need to go dark all around, but I dont want to get a ticket for tint.

well, they're building a new school right now, and we get to graduate from it first next year...but for this year, theres a senior lot...which i cant park in cuz im a junior, and juniors park out on the street...and only the side near the school...so all the cars are lined up on the street, i try and park in the first 4 spots or so that are visible from the school, but generally speaking...it'd be pretty obvious if anyone tried to key a car out in front
in our school, the sophmores and juniors park in the back and the seniors have a different parking lot in the front. They have no cameras, so next year I'm going to see if some people would chip in to buy one.

Heres a pic of a DUMB prank the seniors did in our school today. They did it to like 10 cars. I don't know what it is. Maybe mayo? I took it to a self wash during lunch and washed it after i came home.

i would never key anyones car period. and if neone does threaten to key my car there will be problems.... luckily i am outta college now so i dont have to worry bout dumbasses dingin my doors. the first day i had the benz upstate i came outta a grocery store and found a shopping cart next to my passenger side door. there are 2 long digs on the side of my car not too noticable but from an angle you can see. I also have 2 small dings on my passenger fender that i know ppl purposly ding my car. people hate and thats y you gotta park far away, dont take up 2 spots b/c that will make ppl wanna key it more. i would park on the very left side or the very right side just so i can park closer to the curb b/c i know how ppl are with there doors and some ppl with hootys in college purposly swing there doors.

yeah it really sucks, but i mean there isnt anything you can really do about it, you cant stand by your car all day. I mean i have parked in the damn boonies and gone into the store, and yep you guessed it, when i come out, there are three punk ricers parked next to my car - So i look at it like this, there is only so much you can do to protect your car, If you have something like what happen to Aceer4u's moms whip, that is extreme, but the dings and stuff are something we are just going to have to live with and TRY to let it happen.
But in the end, there is really no way to prevent it. I highly doubt many people on the planet have watched their car keyed. My point is, its going to happen when your not there, so why stress it living in fear of something you cant control. Just my .02

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned...
With that in mind keying is nothing like what I went through back in 2001. I broke up with this woman and happened to have made the mistake of leaving my GS400 parked outside overnight. I woke up to find a gallon can of aircraft stripper empty setting next to it and the paint bubbling on the hood, roof, trunk, and fenders. The paint just washed off! But to make matters worse that stuff was strong enough to make the front and rear bumpers turn to a semi soft rubbery compound that you could bend and shape rather easily. My insurance company was not very happy to say the least. To make matters worse she pretty much admitted to doing it but with no solid proof the cops did nothing.

I have walked out to a car covered in egg multiple times (back in high school), but set up a camera and caught the *******s the third time.
Police took care of it.
Since then I have been very fortunate to not encounter to many douchebags...

That's some crazy sh*t!!! I think that comes really close to this (yes, it's an M3):
