HAHA, this is by far the best solution. The webcam is a good idea if there is enough light on the street.

Call the Cops, park where you like on a public street, use Rubbing Alcohol to remove glue and do a wheel spin on his face.

I recently had to redo my driveway and had to park across the street in front of my neighbor's property. They were perfectly cool with it as long as I didn't block the mail box . . . There are a lot of other ways to go about this and your neighbor is simply asking for it . . . go to the cops once u get some video evidence . . .

Alot of places have a no-parking law on the streets 2am-7am. Its not usually enforced though, unless someone complains about it.

It's still not his place or within his right to vandalize someone's car even if there is such a law.

well obviously. Also, im sure the guy isnt waiting around to 3am to do it, so hes probably parked legally at the time anyway.

Regardless, I would keep doing it just to piss the guy off, and collect evidence. Sounds like the guy is getting more and more pissed by the night, so he might slash your tires or something. Try and get that on tape :D

Even better:

Taser them, and then restrain them with duct tape and call the cops. That would make for an embarrasing evening for the guy.

don't really have proof that they did it... I didn't see them, neither did anyone else. Obviously it was. Anyways, I'm going to set up a webcam since I can see their place and my car from my girls window.

Thats a good idea.

I'd have called the cops after the last incident. Assuming the OP kept the notes they'd have all the evidence needed to nail the guy or at least scare him enough that he desists vandalizing cars.

Or get gallons of glue and dump the sh!t over every window of his house. That should keep him busy for weeks trying to clean off.

I have the last note they left, which is actually the best since they specifically mentioned how i wasn't allowed to park in front of 72343 whatever street. I didn't call this morning because I was in a rush to get to a meeting, and just generally prefer to keep police out of it.

I think some serious public humiliation is in order.

1. Tasered and stripped
2. Tarred and feathered
3. ???
4. Profit

I'd catch them in the act (webcam is good idea if there's enough light and make sure it's recording a video file to a computer in case you need it). If it's the street, it's public property. He doesn't have any ownership whatsoever and what he's doing is vandalism, period. Catch them in the act with a webcam and while they're doing it, confront them on it and if necessary, involve the police with the video file. He could be arrested and have to pay for all damages.

i had a very similar issue with a neighbor of mine, he would put notes on my car then he started spitting and throwing dirt on it... i confronted him about it and he just kept denying it, called the cops and all they did was leave him a note...finally i told him i knew it was him and that if he did it again he would regret it... i guess that scared him enough not to do it anymore, he was an ass

I think video evidence is best. The best part is you could post it on YouTube and the ass would be infamous forever.
