Secret scratchers, not secret santa....
Every week I see a scratch done to my car. First it was my passenger side door, then my tailgate on my hatch, then my passenger side quarter panel, then my driver side quarter panel. I park my car in the back of my house, in front of my garage in my long driveway.
I threw out the fact that it was delibrate due to the fact the way the car was scratched. The scratch doesnt look like it was done by a key or that it was a straight line or anything.
The scratch looks like a pattern. Have you guys every used a spiral spined notebook and used the spine to scratch a surface? it looks like that.
I have a list of possible suspects.
-The neighbor hood cats????
-The mentally challenged son of the owner in the back- he takes the trash out every week for us with those big garbage cans, even though my girls integra doenst get scratched
-The little kids who play near my car everyday at my girl's parents house
What or Who could be causing this????? What should I do??? I dont have the money for expensive video cameras either.

i dont think its cats, these scratches were horizontal, not vertical, plus its on the quarter panel which would be hard for a cat to stay on. Yeah, I'm thinking of getting a car cover, i work for autozone so i get a discount but i think i might be lazy to do this everytime i park. hahhahha. I think i will just put my girls camera on the dash and have it aim towards the rear of the car. thanks guys

i think its at my house, although i park my car at my girl's parents house too. Theres no cats there although their are kids that play outside sometimes. but it doesnt explain the random areas that are scratched or the pattern of scratches on the car which is the same style pattern on each scratch area. i dont know, ima figure it out
