Ok, so my car's rear passenger window was broken, probably by punk neighborhood kids. Filed the police report, yadda yadda yadda.

No Auto Glass shops are open on Sunday's, so what exactly am I supposed to do to cover/protect the window for when I'm driving around on Monday?

Just use gaffers tape or something similar and not duct tape or you'll get a lovely residue all over your vehicle when you remove it.

Cut a piece of cardboard to match the opening, and use blue painters tape so it wont ruin or mark your paint surface.+

In the future, make sure this doesn't happen again by equiping your valued automobile with a Blaster flamethrower:

It happens when you have an RX-7.

People get jealous.

No that that is settled, how are you going to exact your revenge? Do we have any leads on who did this?

I strongly suggest running over their cat.

or breaking a laptop.

if you're really feeling up to it. you could tell the kids friends that he is gay.

The gay thing is a bad idea.

Easily to connect the dots for a case of slander. And you'll wish for plausable deniability.

Whatever you choose to do, if you do something, it needs to be anonomyous if you wish to avoid reprisals or consequences.

Most of the busted out windows I see, people just take a black trash bag, put it over the top of the window frame, pull it kind of tight, and close the door.

Still obviously ghetto, but no worries about tape and it should keep out the rain.

If one has the audacity to thwart Tamral's wishes in any way, he will immediately embark on a quest for justice. In order to get this justice, he will break your laptop, kill your cat, and tell everyone you know that you are gay. This from the lips (or the fingertips) of Tamral himself.

This news was brought to you by the letter H and the letter T.

Too funny.

Oh, the plastic bag thing sucks. When you're driving the wind sucks the plastic back and forth making it very noisy. The faster you drive, the louder it gets.

If you want to get really fancy, find cardboard with the wax coating (chicken packing boxes). That way its waterproof too. Might need to retape after the storm's over though.

Back when I had my tempo (about as modern as skrims POS neon) my backwindows got stuck down. I used a piece of the heavy sheet plastic made for insulating your home windows and packing tape and had no problems.

I used to drive an aqua green tempo as well. The Lean, Green, Pimp machine, I called it.
