My wife comes out of the grocery store only to find that someone took the Mazda emblem off the rear hatch of our P5 and was nice enough to leave a coupe of scratch marks too. Why are some people so worthless?

I had the same thing happen to me a few months back.Walked out of a place and noticed these two holes in my liftgate and thought"there should be a ******* emblem there...curious."So after alot of swearing and fist shaking I called my dealer and got a replacement for $12.I told him to order a couple more.
The youth of today just seem to have no respect for anything or anyone.

I walked out of work one day and found this stupid kid carving his name with a key into the trunk of my civic I grabbed him and slammed him to the ground, pulled my keys out and carved my initials into his back. He will never forget the day he fucked with someone else's property.

Travis-Excessive but it gets the point across.
If I had found the little ****** who took my emblem I would probably have "mounted" it in his chest.

Well I cleaned up the adhesive and took a closer look. Scratches are down into the bare metal. Luckily I had some touch up paint from the welcome kit. I'll put it in the body shop this week. Instead of replacing the emblem I'll just have the shop remove the other two and fill all the holes. I would just assume there not be anything to steal. I guess now I gotta pass the buck. Find some crappy *** ricer and gouge his Type-R emblems..

Excessive, yes. Do I care? no. He was carving his initials into my car, not his. was he old enough to drive? no, prolly 12 years old? Do I care? no. I spent my hard earned money on that car and I will be damned if some stupid little kid whos parents dont give a flying **** about him is gonna carve his initials into my car. Yes, I could have easily grabbed em and called the cops, but why? They would have let him out soon after and he would have done it again to someone elses car. Now he knows what happens when you mess with someone elses property.

Rod....make sure the shop fills the holes the RIGHT WAY...weld them up....otherwise you are just asking for the filler, bondo, to pop out when you shut your hatch one day.

Already on it. There are only two body shops that I'll let work on my car. One is here in Ft. Lauderdale, the other is in Atlanta. My P5 has already been in for repairs twice. The wife ripped off the front bumper trying to cross a median (why in the hell I don't know) and a tow truck tagged the rear bumper the day I picked it up. The guy does perfect work and guarantees it for life. I already tried to get him to half *** something on another car I have. He won't do it. He'll only do it the right way or you take it somewhere else. Hard to find a place like that these days but glad I did.

doesn't your wife relize this car an't a SUV

I think she realized after yelling a couple of WTF were you thinking on the side of the interstate at 6:00am. There was an accident on her way to work and she was too impatient to wait the extra 3 minutes to get through. So instead she ditches it trying to cross the interstate and go the other way. I have to go out at 6:00am to yank her out and give her a good car so I can take the Pro to the body shop. The cop that showed didn't give her a ticket thankfully. It was hard for me not to call the cop a dumbass too as he openly admitted to doing the same thing the week before.
