well I can tell you one story too... When i was something like 15 I was in a restaurant with my Mother and her friends... So One guy parked his CLK320 righ infront where we were sitting, Back then it was just out brand new shiny CLK320!! So some dood with a guitar decided to open his case with guitar on his Trunk... So the owner got very upset and the guitar guy ended up with a broken nose and a broken arm! Now that's what I would do too!

Where has respect gone? I see alot of it here in the UK - its the worst aspect of the society here. Its completely out of fashion or whatever the case is ... I hate it.
Ferking kids have no respect for ANYTHING or ANYONE. I suppose its not 100% their fault but their parents either have no discipline or just dont care.
I suppose I would also be a disgruntled teenager with that upbringing... but sometimes its also plain common sense.

I would have expected more compression of the hood against the tires on the SLR. I know he is standing kind of in the center of the hood which would cause an equal distribution of the weight (not as pronounced). It seems that the SL's fender is practically touching the tire....but the ignoramus is much closer to that side. Can the SLR photo be a result of photoshop (maybe wishful thinking)?

RAWR...
I am a young guy, age 23, I am an orphan with bi-polar, born with quite the disadvantage in Baltimore city, I worked very very hard to get where I am and it didn't happen over night, i started working very hard for this life when I turned 13, I had meet my maternal grandmother of my decided mother and I was givin such opportunities moving to vienna, va to live with her. I took full advantage of these opportunities and now lead a good life. Whats my point with all of this, I get very upset when people don't respect my belongings, I worked very hard for them and no one handed me ANYTHING, I am a high school dropout.
so what happen... this Saturday, I was at a bar/club in Arlington, VA, I happen to get lucky and got parking RIGHT in front of the door, we parked there and got in line, which did not start right in front of the door, after some time in line, we got close to the door and by my car, where I could see some mother ****er leaning back on my car like he ****ing owned it and the world surrounding...
I walked over to him and said "Do you own this car."
HIM(random ****er) was honest enough to answer "no."
Rich(ME) "well I do and I would appreciate it if you would get off of it."
HIM(random ****er) "Im not hurting anything man, don't worry about it."
Rich(ME) "look dude, I paid a **** tone of money for this hunk of metal and its not for you to sit on"(he was leaning, but I said sit)
HIM(random ****er) "Theres no need to get all upset, its probably not even your car." (as he got off the car)
Rich(ME) "it doesn't even matter if its mine or not, its not yours and its disrespectful."
HIM(random ****er) "yea whatever."
Rich(ME) I then walked back over and got in line, not even 2 minutes later, this non-caring disrespecting piece of **** is back on my ****ing car. so I walk over to him..
Rich(ME) "dude, what the ****, I asked you not to lean on my ****ing car, this car cost me $150k, I have to pay $4k a mo for the car and insurance, I would really appreciate it if you didn't use it as a prop." (cost of mods and yes my insurance is retarded high)
HIM(random ****er) "its not even your car dude, what the **** do you care."
Rich(ME) I had key in pocket and I have keyless, so I opened the door right next to him "yes mother ****er, it is, get the **** off of it or I will god damn kill you."
HIM (random ****er) "fine dude, sorry I didn't know it was your car, relax"
Rich(ME) "I told you before it doesn't matter if its MY car or not, its not yours and its disrespectful."
He got off the car for good at that point because people started noticing and my friends came over and wear getting ready to keep me from killing him.
If I hadn't been going into the club to meet with some of my female friends, I probably would have never said anything and just walked up in hit him in the face, I feel thats the same ****ing way he treated me. I ****ing hate selfish people who don't care about anything but them selves and don't respect anyone.![smash](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smashfreak.gif)

On another note what mods you have on the car that it's 150k? I know you have the P30, what else?

RR,
What you should do is create mass hype. The owner of the SLR may not know that somebody stepped on his hood, because it could have popped back up.
What you could do is circulate these photos around forums that SLR owners frequent, if they havnt been circulating already. Word of mouth can spread this. Forums like ferarrichat, lambopower, sixspeedonline, anotheroneimforgetting, basically your forums for your higher end vehicles. Also hit up the AMG private lounge and post it there. I'm very sure that these pictures have done the rounds.
What you can do is email the SA of Fletcher Jones in LV and ask him to forward this picture to all his Black SLR and Silver SL owners(if posssible) or ask him to post it somwhere near his office. I'm sure this would anger the owner if he randomly sees it or if it spreads by word of mouth.
just my $0.02

Well Guys...
I've know this for a while... But have been dreading posting.
We are at a dead end.
I have a contact who is close to Eugene.. That is his name. I have his last known address, and full name. But it does no good.
Those shots of them on the cars were indeed in Las Vegas. They were taken on a trip there, and the person close to him verfied from the Exif data that they were the same as the other pictures from the trip.
So... It definately happened in Vegas, AND the LVPD has NO records of any SLR or SL500 vandalized there. PERIOD, so... We know no Police report was filed... Now ok... So you think that the person who owned the car took care of it him/herself, and paid out of pocket, or through insurance...
BUT... Fletcher Jones Would have definately known about it. I talked to the SA There who Exclusively handles ALL SLR's In Las Vegas... I sent him the pictures, and he assured me that if it was one of their cars/customers he would have known about it in five minutes.
I seriously doubt that the hood popped back into place, not aluminum, there would have been a crease anyway. I would venture to say the owner wouldn't have wanted Body filler on the car, so a replacement hood would have to have been ordered from Germany... I've heard in the nieghborhood of $20k !!!
You see the dealer would have had to have known.
So... I'm at a dead end... No point in calling Washington State dealers, if it definately happened in Las Vegas... Maybe it was an LA car... Who knows.
I'm out of ideas... And badly disapointed. I wanted to catch this scum so badly.![Tear](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/tear.gif)
If anyone can think of anything else to do... Please let me know. I'm very sorry and apologize to everyone. I feel I've let you guys down, and more I feel I've let the owners of those cars down. Maybe something will break one day... And we'll find out something... I won't forget about it, and keep my hopes up.
Thanks Everyone for helping... You are all great people, and I'm proud to be a member here.
Best Always,
RoydRage
