Am I in the wrong?

Ok let me paint the picture here. It was a beautiful day yesterday. As a matter of fact the past couple of day have been gorgeous. 80+ degrees and my top and doors have been off the past 3 days. I was at a red light, birds were singing and even had a lot of people complementing me on my jeep, even though I know them (I live in a small town) lol. As I was waiting for the light to change I happen too look down and thought that would be a cool picture. <img src="https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=564243"/> I was minding my own business and up rolls a jacked up ram 2500 cummins. Heck I was looking at the rims and noticed the guy scowling and proceeds to rev the dang thing up and blow black soot, cause it was a stove pipe coming out the back, all over me and my jeep. I let it go, you know what ever, right? He done it again. Then a third time...on that last time, I was sent into a world of pissed off that I haven't been in awhile. So I pulled the small fire extinguisher I have and proceeded to spry him through his passenger window! Evidently I shot his woman aswell but at this point, for all I care, she was collateral damage. So he gets out and I fill his face full! Now during all of this...a town cop is a car behind me. He gets out, I went to school him, a good friend of mine, and he breaks up the fight, even though the douche couldn't see. Anyways he stomps off yelling he's gonna sue and drives off. After I calm down and stop seeing red I ask my cop buddy if I should worry, he said "naw"(were country boys) that he saw everything and he had my back. He looks at me and starts laughing. Says I can't believe you shot him with a fire extinguisher. We laugh and talk for awhile. So my question is: was I in the wrong? And if so, how would you have done it differently?
I did this once, to a guy who was friends with our neighbor. He continued to block our driveway every time he visited. I asked him nicely to not block the driveway. Well, one morning, he parked in from of our driveway. I was sleeping in and my wife comes to tell me she can't get out because of this dick. I quietly get up, don't speak to her or anybody, walk out, dig in my land rover, find the 30ton chain I scored from an M1 broadly, wrapped it around his rear axle and the other end to my tow hitch. I literally dragged his Porsche out of the neighborhood and down the street about 1/4 mile and left it there. I returned and went inside. About 30 minutes later, he and my neighbor followed the skid marks to his car. Guess what, he didn't park in front of our driveway again.
The way I see it, I don't want to be an asshole or prick. But if provoked, I will respond, and most unfortunately for the recipient, more than they want.

Have you ever had those moments when something happens and later at night you lay in bed, replaying the situation in your head, thinking "I shoulda done this" or "I wish I had said that" but you just let it ride? I know I have. This time the role is reversed lol. I do kinda wish I'd just let it go. 98%of me is pretty sure that the fella just went on. My buddy said the tags were out of state. But that other 2% is bagging at me. The whole assault thing is what has me worried. I didn't think that the cameras started recording untill the blue lights came on..

I wait for this to happen to me all the time. Not so bad when top up and doors on so I just laugh them off.
However, at a red light , with top down and doors off, I literally get the hand shakes that comes with the anticipation of having to deliver a beating to some a-hole.
