My advice to you is to apply a deterrent that would force any potential vandal to abstain from his wrongdoings. An example would be to purchase a cheap camera (this may be a smart investment if the vandalism occurs frequently [like you mentioned] and perhaps will cost more than the camera to rectify) and position it so that fixates in the direction of your car, then add a lucid warning sign stating that there is a camera and that you will promptly report any malicious activity.

Actually I made this thread not to get idea to protect my car. But I am very concerned with vandalism in my place that has been a big problem. Many public properties and people ruined because vandalism. So I hope I can have idea to reduce vandalism that I can share with people and government.
There are many CCTVs in big city where I live (Bandung, Indonesia), but it's not effective. Even there is a new trend in my place which youth ruin public properties, take photo, and proudly post it in social medias!. Indeed, then they stop doing this wrong after scolded or punished, like a guy that punished to clean up a street by the mayor few months ago. Unfortunately, there's always new vandal that appear.
But, Jazak Allah Khayr for your concern, brother.
