OP, once I got my Z the first thing I modded was my house, added a set of 4 cameras 2 of which are pointing at the driveway..

Best bang for the buck I found was an "Amcrest 4 channel 720P system" on amazon, costs maybe $320 at the time and gives amazing video well over 40+ feet

Awesome! Thanks everyone. Please continue with the ideas. There will be no revenge taken just to clear everything up. I just don't want this to become a daily thing where tires are slashed on several repeat occasions :/

first thing's first, I'd make sure you contact the police about the vandalism. they MAY send a patrol out and that might be enough to scare the crap out of the culprit to avoid anything happening for a little while until you get the cctv up...

sorry can't help you on that in terms of products... is there any private parking facilities that you can get for a short term (like an underground garage?) while you wait?

Happened to a buddy of mine ~30 years ago. They ended up together shortly afterward and are happily married today. Not the recommended route to marital bliss though.

I would strongly advise against this approach in this situation.

Years and years ago, an acquaintance of mine slashed my valve stems on a couple of occasions because I was dating his ex-gf. I guess he wasn't strong enough to slash the tires themselves or was trying to be more surreptitious. I knew it was him "through the grapevine" but never saw him near my car. A couple of nights I parked in a well-lit area and had a rifle ready. Looking in the rear-view mirror, his not showing up on those nights was a blessing for both of us. Without even considering his fate, I am sure that my life would have been changed for the worse. I guess he got over his ex- as my valve stems quit being slashed.

One more piece of advice, forget the CCTV cameras, you won't be able to get a good enough resolution on the face. Go with high definition right off so you don't waist your money on the low res stuff.

Something like this...
Lorex 4-Channel, 4-Camera Indoor/Outdoor High-Definition NVR Security System Black LNR1141TC4 - Best Buy

Or even better... 4MP system but they get pricey.

Agree....go with 1080P and NVR.

In that case he would be looking at a COMPREHENSIVE Coverage claim through his Auto insurance. You would pay the deductible and the insurance pays the rest, but depending on what tires you are looking at and what your deductible on the Z is, it may be cheaper to just buy the new tires and install a dash cam.

I'm married to a redhead. 'nuff said.

OP, good luck and agree with what everyone has said about setting up cameras to get proof of who may be slashing your tires.

It didn't happen to the Z, it happened to my other car. The Z was in front of that car though which is right next to some motion sensor lights. My guess is that they maybe tried to get the Z and then the lights came on and they ran and came back and got my other car? Who knows. Tires for my Dart are $80 a pop because they are only a 225/45/17 but it's just the fact that it is a brand new car and I'm already paying out of pocket for something that I shouldn't be. The Z will be moved to a friends house on Friday for quite some time. It's just not worth it to me for something to happen to my pride and joy. If that knife would have hit the Z's $1000+ set of tires and paint then we would have had a serious problem. Anyways, I'll look into those high def night cameras. Can't really afford it at this time but maybe in a few weeks I'll get something set up. Very annoying that people have to hate and do something like that.

Everyone said it all, honestly the person that did this is an f-n a-hole. Not to mention the maturity level. That being said you can lay a booby trap, giant sized rat traps or some electrical high voltage wire that is camouflaged around your car. I know it sounds stupid and hypocritical but it would be fun to watch the vandal get shocked on your new high def night cam, then upload to YouTube and their FB and get a billion likes LoL.

Ok now for the serious part, if any harm comes to that person now they are going to look at you although you may be innocent, the best thing to do is to squash whatever nonsense it is and be civil about it. For someone to go to that extreme is really hateful. At the same time it could be anyone you randomly may have p-oed by acciden or just some dumb kids your never really know.. Anyway I am really sorry this happened and hope everything works out for you, in the mean time look for a cheap set of used tires unless your deductible is cheaper then get new.

I have a very good idea of who did it. When I told my friends everyone single one of them thought of that person first. It's an 18 yr guy that has it out for me because he flat out hates my Z because it's too "loud" and the fact that I happen to work in the building below his gf... Iv honestly never met this kid in my life but his gf used to tell me all the time how much he hates me and the Z... Go figure. Deductible is $500 so it wouldn't even be remotely worth it to file a claim. I'm going to be changing it to zero because the Z will be taken off insurance next week when it moves to my buddies house. Oh well. Like everyone said its really immature and I'll buy a quality security system soon just to protect my vehicles. I had my 2015 s1000rr outside too and decided to push it in the garage at the last minute and I'm really glad I did. Wouldn't have been fun to see a $20k+ bike on its side!

keep fire/theft on the car at the very least...

as for your comprehensive going to 0... that will definitely make your premium go from decent to wtf train hit in the face omg bbq levels.

well maybe not definitely but will rise the premium. imho 200 bucks for the new set of tires will be cheaper in the long run.

also to the anecdote... if he hates the z so much why didn't he attack the Z? I think it was a random act of vandalism personally.

:iagree: that was my first thought. Did you forget Valentines day or her birthday?

Btw, who curbed the **** out of those tires to begin with?

Aren't there cameras you can mount inside of the car so no matter where your parked it will be watching? That's what I'm trying to look into
