feeling bummed, just woke up to find some vandals trashed my car >:o

the windshield sucks, but thats easy replace, im more bummed that the morons missed and hit the roof where it meets the windshield, how bad is this? would i be able to pull the ceiling board and just bang it out or would it call for more drastic measures?

 

WOW.... WTF is wrong with people now adays ??????

It should be repairable.... Good luck and I hope you find the F@^%#&'s who did this...

 

Haters

My worst nightmare is to have my car totaled out by some punk kids. F'ers

As far as the damage. You'll have to set under the headliner and get it as close as you can with some body hammers, and then.. EEgad a "little" bit of body filler, prime and paint.

 

i think the same thing, who would harm a defenseless car

 

really my worst rx7 nightmare is fire, thanks .. i was hoping i wouldnt need to have to go with body filler

 

WTF os wrong with people now a days. I am sorry for you and your car. May you be lucky enough to find out who did that and "make it right!"

 

just make sure you use a quality filler like rage gold

 

I would almost say the whole roof skin should be replaced.

 

Using any body filler is the 'easy' way out. And yes, I've used it myself on many occasions simply because I don't have the skills or equipment to drill and pull and weld to make a filler-free repair.

I too hope you find the perps and....well....kill them.

 

its replaceable? it looks like the whole roof + the pillars + rear fenders are one giant piece

 

What the hell is wrong with people? I would rage.

 

That is frustrating!

 

im sorry for you. i had something even worse in may this year. someone smashed my sidewindow, ruined the door bar and cutted my seats ... i know how you feel right now. I hope this poor chicken-hearted sucker dies soon. Good luck with repairing :/

 

thanks guys for the replies, thanks for letting me vent and sharing your stories, im more saddened than angry, but after research and Aeka GSR's reply, i looked into the roof panel being replaced and i guess almost anything on the car is replaceable and that has given me a sense of relief

 

Go through insurance man.

 

Yes, assuming you have comprehensive coverage. Is it insured?

 

Dam that sucks.

 

You should be talking to a bodyshop for real advice and quotations. I would get both options: Repairing the damage by filler and also what it would take to replace the roof skin. You are probably better off with an aftermarket windshield, it will be cheaper than OEM. All they lack is the little mazda logo anyways. Also, I think it's weird that someone would just damage your car like that without you angering someone or doing something yourself (I could be wrong, this is just as assumption). Wish you best of luck.

 

nope no insurance, i havent had it plated and was letting it sit on my aunts driveway

 

nope im 30 and i dont have any "enemies", too old for that kind of drama, i had it stored at my aunts which is in its own private coldasack(sp?), they smashed my uncles windshield as well and smashed my aunts satellite dish and the nearby neighbors mailboxes

 

Did all that vandalism happen the same day? Or is that neighborhood known for that kind of stuff? Id be really reluctant to leave my car there from now on. Good luck with repairing it, I can't beleive that anyone who do something like that. They're probably lucky you werent around to catch them in the act.

 

same day, and nope its a really affluent neighborhood and wooded so its pretty well hidden

 

Hidden but public. Thieves and vandals like that kind of stuff.

 

dude that pisses me off 9 times out of ten who did it live with in a mile my ae86 was stolen kid that stole it lived 7 houses down good thing it was a parts car keep eyes open there around there look for shoe prints thay tell u lots

 

that blows!! Hope things work out for you. God help the person who does this if I catch them!
