I think your assumptions are a little ridiculous. What does the neighborhoods majority of nationality have anything to do with your car vandalized. I park my car on the street all the time and definitely don’t have any issues. Next time just fold them in or keep a better eye on your car. Good luck on getting a new mirror and I think carbon fiber would look pretty good on red.

The neighborhood majority has everyitng to do with y car beign vandalized!!!!! usually in good neighborhoods cars dont get vandalized and in bad neighborhoods they do lol..... also if it does get vandalized and a neighborhood is mostly one group, it can be most likely be traced back to them

I have yet to see a body shop get the paint as good as you can get from the factory. The blend is never quite right, or they leave little air bubbles, dust, etc. Even with a good paint job, a pro would be able to tell easily that it's been repainted, and it will affect your resale value.

I'd much rather have a replaceable part taken off the car than being keyed.

It's not just Italians... people of all types do stupid things when drunk and partying. Leaving your car outside on New Years or July 4th is not a bright idea, no matter what neighborhood you live in. At least it didn't get hit with fireworks or have any bullet holes in it.

Well, when you don't have lots of time to scour the threads, you skim-read a lot!

No problems. Just a little defensive and hate racist remarks, although not implying this directly to you.

I for one like Italianos. My wife took two semesters of Italian and when we do the nasty I have her talk in Italion. Scoyatolo= means "Squirel". Yeah, we get pretty crazy

lol!!!! Dude the same thing happened to me...well almost! I get out of a new years party to find my mirror folded in, and a big *** mark and some dents down my door from some dude that rubbed his dodge ram against it while pulling out. Of course he didnt stay to take responsibility but thankfully my little brother and his friends saw the whole thing when my alarm went off and I was able to catch the guy not even an hour later. good luck with the repair man!
