I had my car at the time parked outside and I was actually suprised nobody ever did anything to it. I thought about getting a car cover, but I thought that would just provoke people even more. I just tried not to draw much attention to the car. Washing and cleaning wise......I just took it to the local self wash place and kept my bucket and soap in my trunk along with some towels, quick detailer, etc. Just use their water and your own supplies, that's what I did and my car was always clean. Whener I wanted to wax, etc. I would take her home however.
