I cant believe that. Oh wait. Ya i can. People are so low sometimes. I just want to yell "go out and get a job u scum of the earth instead of trying to steal everything" But it really gets to me when you pour your heart and soul (and wallet) into your car and someone with a screwdriver can f everything up. Oh well. But ya, your car and tufys are my 2 fav.

stealing at its worst. might've just been a vandalism, because usually if a thief wanted it that bad he woulda probably got it.

You should invest in an alarm that hooks up to your hood as well as your doors and such, and also get some Hella supertone horns, not only will you keep them out, but you'll make them deaf and possibly break windows.

we do have an alarm, and it DID go off.
problem is, where i live, we cant hear it in the house. and noone seems to hear or see ANYTHING in this damn "neighborhood" i havent even seen the damage yet, my wife goes to work @ 4:30 am, and didnt notice the damage till around 7:30 this morning. what a great way to start a day..woken up by the wifey telling me this crap. she should be home in a little while, ill try and get a couple pics then. thanks for the kind words all, they DO help. the wife just got home, here are a couple pics.. needless to say, we're just slightly pissed off. jenn stopped by and seen our buddy dominic (our body dude) on the way home from work and he said he can take care of it no problem..didnt give her a price tho, imma call him and see what he says..

Sorry to hear about that bud...that sucks. Do what I do and link up an infra-red camera to you computer or a video, and leave it recording all the time. Since i fitted it in a very visible place, noone has touched my car. Prior to that it had been vandalised twice in a month.

They probbaly thought you had an alarm, so they just wanted to disable it first. But seems like you don't so they got nervouse and decided to run off when someone came by or something. The other thing is they might have wanted to cut up all your wires, and damage your engine. Its about time you start thinking of who you pissed off or beated dragging. The ones I can think of are poor peeople who have caught a glimpse of your car. Quality as they say is the only thing thieves go after.
