I think I would print out the clearest picture of their face and car. Buy some small poster board, paste picture to poster board with a note underneath. You could go funny....(if there is a goofy picture of them) "caption this photo" and an email address or more serious, "I have a special set of skills...", or "in case you didn't know, you're being recorded"

Then set that on your dash everytime you park in the complex.

Let it go is probably best advice tho.

Save the video as long as you can ID the participants.

Most of you seem to think these are children, and not just #whippersnappers. They are living there WITHOUT their parents, right csczero ?

I've actually had more people mess with my vehicles when I park far away from shit then when I park somewhat close. As crazy as that seems. People see you parked on the outside and think "he must be special" and mess with your car.

Essentially. Harmless, but makes them understand they aren't anonymous, out of reach or not accountable for their actions.

Or putting a post it note on their bicycles, with the note "Hi, I would like to meet and get to know you", works even better.

Ah, the patented misunderstanding of 'occupy 2 spots must=douche', which is not the case here.

Since you're leaving soon, probably not worth bothering, but I wouldn't mind explaining the situation to them in a nice manner to clear the air if you bump into them by chance.

If ya can not find them before you leave, crop a picture from the video that shows the "perps" and their car then post it up in multiple places through out the apt bldg. The put something on it that says "Do you know who these people are? They were seen involved in some criminal mischief in the parking garage. Please contact the local bldg super."

Some of the other residents will probably recognize them as well as the perps recognizing themselves. And unless the perps find all of the post ups multiple residents will realize they have a couple douches living in their building and every time they see perps hopefully they will get the sink eye.

You will be long gone, but they will not ...

Homeowner here. But what does "living in an apartment" have to do with anything? I have friends who live in damn nice apartments that pay thousands and garage parking, and luxury amenities out the ass. No one deserves to have their shit F'd with no matter where they are. But alas... douchebags among us.

Oh and in this particular case OP, I'd let it go. Damage is a whole other story.

I meant that most apartments atleast where I live don't include garages and I wouldn't own a nice car if it had to sit outside all the time. Didn't mean disrespect to people that do but most people around me that live in apartments don't drive 40k cars either so they couldn't care less about other peoples things.

Batman their asses. Wait outside for them near their cars and beat their asses wearing a mask. While you're beating their ass, make a reference to the car they messed with, then disappear.

I'd park normal, fold my mirrors in, and make sure my cameras were in a great vantage point and get ready to move the fuck out.

where i live there's apartments galore in pretty nice areas and when you drive through the parking lot all you see are BMW's and Mercedez unless you're talking dumpy apartments than yes! i lived in a dumpy apartment complex for a bit and was the only one with a BMW and i parked way across where it was by itself but these ghetto kids still managed to think it's cool to mess with it

Around here if there's a BMW taking up two spaces like that the owner could expect a beat up truck parked about 1.5" from its side.

Now if it were a brand new 3/4 ton, $60K pick-up, those kids might just have set the cones in a manner preventing others from parking within two spaces.

OP - pick your battles well if you want to win in life.
