Just as others have said, I would file a police report just in case. I don't know the extent of your damage, but it wouldn't hurt just in case they caught someone and you could potentionally get some reimbursement for damages or something. My senior year in high school, 3 years ago, my 98 cobra got keyed in my backyard. They scratched "F*** You" in my hood with swirls and then straight down both sides, basically all the way to the metal in all places. To top it off, they put bologna all over it as well. At this time, the car was 5 years old and was in showroom condition with only 3500 factory miles on it (We had just bought it from a guy who was selling it because a baby was on the way). The entire car had to be stripped and repainted. Like $4500. We were able to catch the guys, as it was actually a result of an incident that happened one day at school, so we did have some leads. Got the entire costs covered and the guy got like 18 months probation. I guess that was sufficient, but if it had been up to me, the guy would be in jail still now, having some nightly fun with Bubba. Messing with people's cars is not cool, under any circumstances. Sorry to hear about your misfortune. Maybe something will work out for you.
