My Z was egged!!
 

so my neighbor knocked on my door around 6:30pm today to tell me my car was egged!!! Must've happened sometime last night since i took her out for a ride till about midnight yesterday.

thankfully it was raining all day today, so 99% of it just wiped off. but there's still some stuck in the edges around the passenger headlight that i can't seem to get out. i live in an apartment complex, so no access to a hose.

looks like they threw 2 eggs, one hit the front bumper just under the passenger headlight, and the other hit near the top of the windshield and went over the car since the egg shell was behind the car.

i didn't see any paint damage, but with the sun going down and rain water all over the car, it's hard to tell.

:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Lucky there was no damage. My car still has over 1k in damage.

That so sucks. Any apartment surveilence cameras?

1k in damage from egging? Damn.. Do the eggs eat through the paint?

wow !!! im sorry to hear that !!! Some people have no respect !! This happened to make truck about a year ago and they hit the truck so hard with the eggs that the paint chipped right off and even dented it !! glad to hear there was no major damage !! Karma always comes back !!

not that im aware of, but this got me thinking into putting one of my own looking out my window at the z.

That really sucks but you didn't go outside to take a look at your Z all day till 6:30pm? Sometimes I just look out the window in the morning to make sure it's still there lol but usually I garage it.

There are four marks on my door and fender that look like quarter size spider cracks and it's extremely noticeable. They hit with so much force it's just ruined my paint. To fix it they have to completely sand it down and repaint. They are still trying to find the kids who did it.

The marks are a lot worse now from when it happened..

haha i actually look out my window all the time at my car, especially after i just wake up, but i couldn't see the egg with where it was hit and the angle i was looking at.

due to the rain there were cherry blossom leaves stuck all over my car, so if i did notice any egg, i would've just assumed it was them.

ouch. yah, definitely get a wash and inspect for impact marks. egg shells are notorious for making deep scratches and cracks.

hell, i'd go blast it all off at a carwash even if it's raining if i was in that situation.

Why the hell do retards do this????

Jealousy, revenge, stupidity, etc.

OP, that sucks. Hopefully if there is any damage it can be polished out.

Eggs
 

1 K damage from eggs?!

Same reason they make viruses...they think harming other people or their property is funny..and you can't tell them any different..

Yep. Some people just like to run around and smash mailboxes with baseball bats. No rhyme or reason.

Sorry to hear, OP. If this ever happens to me, I just hope I'm nearby so I can kill them with my bare hands.

Sorry op, I would be so mad. Some people have no respect for others

OP...sorry this happened to you.

As for why someone did this to your car...
Did you happen to park like an *** hat, or drive like an *** hat? Did you park in someone's assigned space? Loud music or loud exhaust can piss people off too, I guess. Have you made any enemies in your complex recently? Does someone have any reason to single out your car and egg it? Have you pissed anybody off lately? Think hard.

Perhaps it was just the act of a jealous punk who just doesn't like 370Zs, and he should be shot.

I'm sorry to hear this happened. I used to live in a condo and had to park outside (no garage). I purchased a car cover to protect it from the elements and what not. Might be worth it to do something similar.

People like this are proof positive that evolution not only works but that it sometimes works in reverse!

You guys don't remember being kids? They don't really care about jealousy or any of that noise. They just think it's funny for the stupidity of it. I threw tomatoes at my principles house when I was a kid. You do stupid stuff.

If you can catch them, nail their parents. Otherwise you are boned man.

I'm not saying I wouldn't be pissed too. I would. I'm just saying, kids will be kids. Everyone does stupid stuff like this as a kid, and if you say you didn't, you are a liar, or you lived a VERY sheltered life.

People are such SCUMBAGS!!!!!! I'm very blessed to be able to put my Z in a garage everynight, just recently my DD a 10 Versa was egged outside my house.

definitely some paint damage, you can tell where both eggs hit :mad:

:shakes head:

Sucks man! Sorry to hear that.

looks like there were 3 eggs, 2 on the hood, and 1 just below the passenger headlight. pics of where they hit:

i feel for you man, I'd be going absolutely batshitt bezerk

If I was you they better hope I never find them. Egging their car or destroying their bicycle would be the least of their worries. Do eggs do that to every kind of car or is the paint on the Z that easy to chip? I mean are these kids beaming them like they are Randy Johnson or something?

haters gonna hate. get a garage

this happend to my buddy few months back on his civic (cleanest honda sleeper u'd never suspect). had to repaint his door.

:iagree: Great advice. But it does suck.

Other than the fact that its fun as he11:icon17:

egg will etch the paint if left in the sun. I would get a bucket of hot or warm soapy water (a car shampoo soap I mean) get a microfiber towel soak the towel and just take it out and leave it on the area with the egg on it... keep it there for a few minutes and see if it wipes off. If not keep doing it until it softens it enough.

If you live in this sort of area you may want to invest in either opti-coat or cquartz as a paint protector... you could even get the whole car covered with the clear bra, but that can be expensive.

No it's not... it's fun as hell to shoot people like that with a pellet gun when they don't think anyone's watching them though. The reaction from the sting they get is f*ckin' priceless!

Looks just like mine did. I'm sorry man :/ maybe use a fine tip sharpie to cover the big chips?

They must really hate you or the car, food is getting expensive!

I dont what your parents where like but as a little kid I was taught that you respect other peoples stuff. People work hard for their stuff and you should not touch it or damage it. I remember one time when I was like 10 I climbed into the bed of someones pickup in front of our house. I did not cause any damage but I got a good talking to by my parents about why I should not do that. I can honestly say growing up I have never purposly damaged anyones property.

:iagree:, Same here. Just another hater, so sad. I had what i thought was someone give me props this past Saturday. I was taking Vanity out for some weekend fun with my wife and this dude in a gen 1 Scion XB pulled up next to me, both passenger and driver taking pics with their cell phones (while driving, turned completely sideways to take the pic). I threw the driver the deuce (peace sign) with a huge smile on my face because i was enjoying her (as i always do regardless) on a pretty nice and clean stretch of road with a few twisties , he looked mad that I acknowledged him taking the pic. Haters are unpredictable, i'll tell you that, you would think he was a true Z fan. That's the reason my 370z stays garaged and she is my weekend fun toy, and not my daily driver. I'm sure you'll know, not everybody works in a car appreciating work environment, most of these haters on the job are gonna hate on the fact of the you have a nice new (pretty exclusive) sports car, rather than appreciating the R&D, and the precision of engineering that was used to create such a pure bred sports car.

:iagree: If I ever did anything like that as a kid my dad would have kicked my ***.

same here, except my mom would have given me the beat down. I did mess around back in the day but it was never any permanent damage.

yah, i eggs are notorious for making those paint chips and marks. :(

i would call your local police to file a report, tell your apartment manager what's going on, contact insurance to get your car fixed.

and get yourself a garage.
