wow the first think i thought was " oh no! the gt4 hood!"

but the damage is not that bad, I'm pretty sure it was an amature theif. Because in all my years of seeing cars stolen this was the first time I've seen them use the screw driver on the hood latch. Most of the time they go for the hood latch cable.

yea, whoever it was, was a totall idiot.
i tried to put myself in theyre shoes, and figure out what the hell they were doing...i mean, really, if you want under the hood that bad, why not just punch out a window and pop the latch?...or with the GT4 bumper, you could just punch out the upper grill,(its plastic in case ya didnt know) and go from there..
and even then..once you get the hood up...without tools, what the hell are you gonna steal?? not like you can just rip the turbo out like a radio!! haha

im thinking theyre gonna try to come back...
all i can say is god better be with them when they do, cause if i catch them, or anyone...imma BASH there fuggin knees with a bat..
and thats no joke. laugh.gif
