Maybe you have a split personality. We'll let you know if you post this again under a different screen name.

i once had a cop come to my house while i was washing my chevelle, he started out with small talk then got to the point. he said they were getting calls about a red 70 nova doing burnouts for the few days prior and thought it was me, heres the good part, i showed him that my car did not have a motor in it and by the spider webs under the hood, it has'nt had one in a while, as he was laughing another red nova, same year as mine drove by that i had never seen in town. after that, we became friends and when i did get it going again, i got away with more crap

There is another Ls that goes through the neighborhood. I tinted the windows and all of a sudden their windows were tinted. I took off the beauty rings and then they did. Then I noticed a black rs near my house and it seriously was bought a day after mine. The paper plates expired 1 day apart. Grrrrr... Luckily I am the only black on black camaro I've seen with yellow calipers. People have driven my car so I know exactly how it looks and I have to say those things bring attention to my minimally modded Ls! Oh and DONT DO THIS AT HOME!!!

I love the it was really him at the hotel. Trying to prove to the wife it wasn't him lol.

Unfortunate. You can't keep people from taking your ideas. Unless you had a patent. But as far as it goes, I would out your friends on high alert and say when you see this car next please pull over and take pictures of it. Find out for yourself. Like someone else already mentioned "I saw your car" and then the cars don't even look the same. To the average person the same color is you, all the time lol

After a month or two, people started saying they'd seen me but I hadn't acknowledged them or that they'd seen my car in places I hadn't been (like a family member seeing my car at a random hotel). Each time, they've described my car at whatever stage it's currently in. As of now, the owner has done every single change to the exterior that I have done shortly after I've done it. Im not sure about tge interior but, due to car shows, i wouldnt be surprised. How would you feel?

It's time for you to come clean
Someone saw you at that Hotel
Yes , you want to creat an alibi to cover your runs into that hotel , not to worry
We won't tell no one

That would be hilarious. But my split personality would look exactly unlike me.

As for the alibi, I have a house and no spouse. No need to sneak to a hotel.

And, like I said, I don't feel any way in particular about it. I'd like to see what my car looks like when it drives by. As long as they're not running from a crime in it, I should be good. I just wanted to know what the sentiment was in the Camaro community.

Haha...I'll make sure to let the forum know if I need an alibi for my other personality's shenanigans.

It's gonna happen. No matter how "different" you want to be. Someone is going to notice your idea, like it, and reproduce it. Embrace it.
