Unhappy Why do bad things happen to good people?

So, to make it short, i yesterday vinyled the back "spoiler" on my E63 with carbon fiber di-noc. It looked awesome. Then me and a friend went to a café near the beach, and when i got back some d!ck had torn up the vinyl. One reason why i'm probably never going to vinyl my car...man this p!sses me of. Now i have to go through the trouble of removing it.

I guess i'm not the only one with similar experiences, having read threads about people keying their cars etc...had to vent

Thank you, and good night

It seems kinda random they tore the vinyl, Maybe it's someone who knows you just got it done? Either way that's just b.s for someone to mess with another persons car.

karma will pay them back . a buddy of mine had a '91 gt mustang and they kept stealing the face of his taillights . so after the second set got stolen , he glued thin razor blades around the outer edge of the lens . about a week went by without anything . then one day , he wakes up and goes outside , and finds blood all over his back bumper and the ground . he said he was hoping to find the tips of some fingers on the ground but the damage was obviously done enough that they never came back for his lights .

i was dating a girl back in the day and one of her good friends was in love with her but she didnt know until he started making remarks about me and finally told her he was . he saw my car at a restaurant and without even blinking , he keyed the hell out of it and then called her to tell her he did it . a week later , he was crossing the street on his way to school and an suv hit him . he spent a month in the hospital . i actually sent him flowers with a card that read " KARMA " .

Edit: Jycke, I'm real sorry to hear about your experience.

Sorry to hear about the damage to your work. Makes it even worse since you did it yourself and ends up with a more personal connotation. Senseless any way you look at it.

what do you mean "face" of the taillights? Completely off topic, just wondering lol.

I'm glad these kind of experiences haven't happened to me...yet...I don't know what I would do, but I'm sure I would end up in jail haha

Sorry to hear about that, I still thought in Finland everyone respected each other and their property.

And people used to respect other people's property but things have changed around here. Overall it's a pretty good place to live in as long as you're normal and fit in with a honda civic for instance. In business meetings it is in many companies forbidden to meet the customer in a nice car because it might in some way offend the customer.. That's how it works in Finland

Alright, welcome At least you picked the right time of year to come here. I always feel sorry for the poor Japanese who arrive here in november when it's cold and raining and the days are short.

I'm a bit less creative. Thus studying economics, majoring in entrepreneurship :P

That sucks why not just buy a carbon fiber spoiler instead? I used the di noc stuff on my interior and it doesn't look very nice compared the the quality of my real CF spoiler. I have never had anyone do anything to my cars luckily except bust one of my fog lights out. It was beat up anyways tough and wanted to change them.
