Thank you asshole who keyed my car - Click HERE for Original Thread

Momentum
4 days after i bought it :(
Why do people do these things? Just wreck some random persons car?

Anybody have any ideas as to where I can get a good deal on an installed 2-way alarm?
Also, good shops that can fix this fucking thing.

EDIT: UPDATE:

Thursday April 25th or something... Thanks to whoever did THIS:

EK9Hatch
Shitty deal man. I've been there before, so I know how you're feeling.

I dont have a garage so my options are

a) Park it on the street, or
b) Park it in the back alley


:mad:

After owning the car for only 4 days (its only been parked at my house 2 nights) im scared to think of how often this shit is going to happen. With my previous car i had my drivers window smashed one night, and the next night eggs thrown INTO the car. Middle of winter and it froze all over the dash/interior.

My cars have been egged 3 times in the last year, my moms 07 Escape was broken into twice and stolen once.

Living in a shitty part of town with poor ass people and drug dealers sucks.

EK9Hatch
Wow, thats brutal. When I first got my car painted and I was scared to death to park it outside my apartment building, so I moved into a house with a garage. I came home from being away with work to find my garage broken into and my car missing.

I guess if a thief wants something bad enough, it doesn't matter where you live/park it. Same goes for people who just random wreck shit.

what part of town do you live in? are you parking on a side busy street or alley way? was the entire car done up and down or just one side?

newaccorddriver
i cant see that kinda stuff happening in beaumont often and going untold. an alarm is one of the first things you could do, but unfortunately, these are the kinda things that are hard to prevent. some people are just too jealous of other people owning stuff

Your car got vandalized in BEAUMONT? WTF? :dunno:

I thought it was supposed to be a nice, respectable community.

Did you file a report with the RCMP? Please do, if you haven't already.

RangerMan
that blows man

obviously theres nothing to do but vandalize cars in beaumont...

Momentum
Yeah im in Beaumont :(

Is there really any point in filing a police report?
They will probably just be annoyed by me :dunno:

How much do 2 way alarms usually cost installed? JB's told me 400 and up for a civic

Ruiner
what part of Beaumont do you live in.. if anywhere near the highschool, thats understandable.. those punks are ignorant as shit.

T-LAV MRV
take time off work, camp out by a window with a slingshot and a giant fuckin tub of gummy bears, they try shit unload on them.

or install a cheap video camera thats turned on by motion and record them. they should be pretty cheap.

They won't be annoyed. They may not be able to do anything about it right away. But your report would be valuable for local crime statistics. The police should know about what happened to your car. If vandalism is a worsening and widespread problem, it could lead to more resource allocation.

I would really hate to see Beaumont go down the tubes like so many neighbourhoods in Edmonton.


sidenote: thank god I've got a triple garage now, I won't have to worry about any vehicles having to park outside most of the time.

People suck.

I live by the BRAC, just behind it. Lots of druggies and shady houses in my area.

lowslowcorrado
such shit man, my 2 good friends live together over in the westend and ones 2005 sti got keyed from the headlight to the corner of the trunk and the other got his brand new impreza wagon keyed down both doors and part of the quarter panel. Like 2 days after they moved in. Fucking bonus.

Inzane
What country(s) is it where vandals get either public caning or get their hands cut off?

We need stricter punishment.

T-LAV MRV
thailand.

we don't need stricter punishment, we need to have good ol' vigilante justice .

mike

Ruiner
isnt it the BRAC where there's usually a dumpster fire every few months too?


It would be nice to have a vigilante system setup, however, the criminal would sue the victim for assault.. thus hitting you in the pocket twice as hard.

the Judicial system protects criminals. just remember this.

Camp out with a paintball gun loaded with marbles, unload on the little cocksuckers the next time they try shit.

dsm112
an alarm probably wouldn't have went off anyways unless you have it set really sensitive but that would be annoying

That is a fucking awesome idea!

Graphicdude
Sorry to hear about this. My suggestion is if you can park it in a well lit area I suggest you do it and invest in a car alarm. Money well spent.

Ruiner
i know of some car alarms that go off when washing the car.

project.D.
...And you just got your new car.:blink: That's gotta suck big balls, sorry to hear that man.

Our 96 Neon (bone stock) was broken into twice in the 6 or so years that we've had it for. The first time happened right under our house's window at night and the thief got as far as ripping out the ignition cables...woulda been bye-bye to the car if our neighbour hadn't got back from work at the very time and scared the guy off.

The other time was more petty and involved a loose toonie lying on the center console. Was the only thing missing from the car...wtf? That happened in the inner-city area or Norwood, so go figure...but nonetheless, the driver's side frameless window doesn't seat itself properly anymore when closing the door. It's a world full of dicks, easy as that.

Yeah, i bought it on friday :(

It was parked at my gf's all weekend, last night was only the second night i had it parked at my house...

fucking cunts

chewy
your best bet is to research and install an alarm that will fit your budget and your situation..a steering wheel lock would also be helpful. Also don't park in the backalley where there's no traffic and easy for thieves do get away with whatever they're doin

Do you mean the car being washed is armed and it goes off (if so, who washes their car with their alarm on? LOL)? Or washing a car has set other cars' alarms off in the vicinity?

JoshP2002
Hey man, is your civic a 92 based off of your profile? Or is this a newer one?
You can get an alarm and install a dual motion sensor, viper has that one specifically... so you dont have to set it super sensitive where anything will set it off, but rather if someone gets within touching distance. Its an add on but well worth it. Im going to be upping the sensitivity on mine soon.. I dont like leaving it alone.
Sorry to hear about the keying, it would be nice to take the law into your own hands at times when you see people do this kind of crap.

nismokutz
kids beaumont are a bunch of fags who are always high and drunk and walk around town cause shit everywhere. i wouldn't recommend this town at all unless u have a garage.

ippy
... they're just jealous

Prudz_lude
that sucks man. I hope it does not cost that much to repaint. hopefully they can paint match the custom color.

The car in my profile picture my old 91.
The car im talking about is a 92 with custom green paint :mad:

Ruiner
i'll have to drive by and take a look at it..

speaking of which, Beaumont members should have a GTG for ourselves, rather than driving deep into Edmonton for a visit.


so are you going through insurance for the paint or are you just going to pay it out of your own pocket?.. I know nisku autobody does good work, and they dont seem to be overbooked like alot of shops in edmonton.. .. just a small heads up of a good location.

Ill probably just pay for it... its not all that bad... the door scratch can probably be buffed out, the rear quarter panel is a bit deeper...

Where abouts do you live in beaumont?
My car is parked at lube city everyday :lol:
Im looking for a new job now :p

I'm in Coloniale. And I have yet to witness riff-raff, dumpster fires, gangsta punks, or any of the like in my area. :dunno:

So far it seems like a great community for young families, and dog owners. So far my only complaints if anything would be that some don't seem to respect residential speed limits (eg. especially around new home construction areas, some seem to think the 40km/h limit doesn't apply), and there are a few irresponsible dog owners that DON'T PICK UP after them. (That really pisses me off, but if that's the worst I have to deal with then I guess I can live with that).

ehos
It's usually decent in res areas where there's just houses. It's where the apartments, rentals are, then you have too many people in too small an area.

Plus there seems to be alot of angry renters (high rents, low wages) nowadays.

Even in 'bad' areas like McCauly, the residential areas are pretty decent.

Ruiner
over on 54th. I hear alot of the FireCalls in Beaumont

Exodus
That's a lot of vandalism in one years time man. If I were you, I'd set up a good night-able camera somewhere in/on the house, and point it at your car. It might not stop the person(s) doing this stuff, but at least there's a chance you could nail one of them and get some compensation for it.

I wouldnt mind living in coloniale :p

My buddy Robb in coloniale drives a Pulsar GtiR, his dad just sold his fairlady, and his brother drove a 180sx until he crashed it last summer :| Now he drifts a 240. Dont know if you've ever seen them, if you head into coloniale and turn left they are just a ways down the road there.

B-TownRep
I'm in coloniale too. My truck was egged once, but only one hit the body. I sold my old car to one of my friends who lives by the brac and a week later someone emptied an entire fire extinguisher into it. Fuckin idiots. You can't vacuum that powder out with a regular vac, it's too fine. Fuck I hate the new generation of young kids grade 9/10 in beaumont. They seem to be alot worse with vandalism. The worst I used to hear about would be spray paint on J.E.

I think i heard about that... wasnt that recently?

And some kid got a molotov thrown at his car the other day... he got out and beat up 3 kids i heard.

There was also an incidident last summer or 2 summers ago where a lady had a molotov thrown into her sunroof.

Beaumont needs a correctional facility.. one way only.. the exit is a needle filled with bleach.

Go to Futureshop, buy a 22" montior, or a laptop. Take out the goods.

Leave the box in the car (so it looks like it's still in there), and set the trap. (Or just get a box from somewhere I guess). I betcha some punk tries to break in and grab it.

Wow sounds like Beaumont's over run by delinquents. Do the police do fuck all there or what?

Cheemoney
sorry to hear what happened. I'm kind of paranoid too because i used to take the bus with this one kid who lives two houses down from me. and he's such a fucking trouble maker. i'm afraid he'll key my car when i get one, and i'd have to park it in the driveway cause my garage is full. i was driving home the other night and my other neighbor had an FC parked outside, so i was thinking "lets see if he gets keyed first". but then again, my hoodrat neighboor doesn't walk by his house to get to the bus stop. :(

pretty much. a few years ago i came home and went to park in the back and there was a car full of guys sittin there so i went around front and they followed. my parents were fighting with a couple while i had one hanging out my window as i was driving. i started to driving towards another car to knock him off but he jumped out just in time. then they took off. cops didn't show up for 30mins and when they did come it was only one cop.... my parents told the cop to go get fucked. they were after my car stereo i'm guessing that i use to have till it got stolen.

That is just nuts. I'll be staying away from that shit hole. It's unfortunate you have to call that home and I'm sure it wasn't like that before.

What age were these guys at the time? I've noticed the last few years that teenagers are realizing they can get away with anything and receive a slap on the wrist. Add that with the increasing use of meth within teenagers and you have a nasty combination.

I'd be setting up a video camera and looking to file criminal charges.

However, that's the rationalist in me.

I'm from a SMALL remote Saskatchewan community..

Take a baseball bat, wrap that shit with a couple towels, get a couple friends, and start camping out in your evenings...

not advocating it, just saying it.

Shitty deal. My brother is going through the same thing pretty much, but with his beater Hyundai Accent. He lives in a townhouse so he parks it outside and one sunday night, his rear tires got slashed. The following sunday after getting his tires replaced it got slashed AGAIN and with a window to boot. We are hoping nothing happens tonight :(

Not quite... 50st doesn't cross the river. Cross the river on Gretsky drive, 2nd set of light after the bridge(first works too) hang a left go to 50st, and head south from there. Or you can stay on 75st all the way down to 34ave, then turn left.. 50st is faster, but it is a rougher road.

i think its time we all take a trip down to beaumont and park out. he'll probably think twice before doing that shit again, or think "sweet, more windows to break". and then we'll break his legs hahaha.

He said in another thread the suspension is stock, just larger tires than factory.. unless he raised it since then.....

no, i have not, i refuse to...

i wonder if the attack isnt on the person but on the car...you said you recently bought it??

maybe the previous owner pissed someone off.....

Ruiner
could that be possible?, hard to think that someone would attack a car specifically, especially after it was sold and relocated.
