Looking for my car's previous master-Chicagoland Area
 
Thought it was worth a shot to see if I could come in contact with my car's previous owner. I live in the Chicagoland area. I think the car was traded to Rizza Auto group which is where I bought it used.

Main reason is looking for the second key for car.

Free case of beer to anyone that helps me get in contact with previous owner.

Car is a 2013 Scion FR-S with mid 20K miles. Tinted windows, nice muffler tips but the standout feature is he mounted the front plate on the tow hook opening.

Thanks...

Here is a link to the regional forums for your area, might help narrow it down

You might be able to just ask the dealer to call the previous owner.

Might be easier to just order a new one. I got three keys so if you only have one you might be searching for two... Valet and two regular keys.

That tow hook opening mount is one of the only mounting options mass available right now, so it may not be a stand-out feature. Crosscharge is on point! Good luck with finding it.

@GLADIATOR Red calipers might standout the most.

Thanks guys.

When I pick up my plates at dealer, I will ask them to call previous owner

I read in the manual that the tow hook should not be left in there because it might not let the airbags deploy?

I was going to remove the license bracket for that reason.

I'm not sure. I doubt a tow hook would interfere with a collision impactful enough to warrant the need for airbags

The thing we're talking about specifically is the license plate bracket holder, which, while goes into the tow hook spot, is not a tow hook

I haven't called to get a price on keys but what is the cost on key replacement at dealer.
