true. just the thought alone that someone out there would ever attempt it gives me the goosebumps!

WTF? It's been exactly two days short of 1 year since someone tried to steal my clear side markers, and this morning I walk out to my garage and notice some f*cker tried to steal them again! (probably from when I was at the market the day before)


The same drivers side clear side marker is protruding out, and the same plastic liner and plastic tab has been ripped open and damaged to try an access the side marker. Just as last time they were NOT able to remove the side marker, but ended up damaging the paint on my bumper yet again!


When will these idiots learn that removing side markers is a pain the butt, and that you won't be able to steal them quickly in a public place. Thanks for causing >$100 worth of damage to steal a $40 part!

I suppose I could be a here rational thing ??? Who knows


Art-

actually in the 90s (the entire decade), it still was like this unfortunately. back then people were jacking clear corners and foglights. it got to a point where it was more common seeing hondas with two square "holes" in the front grille where the foglights used to be... especially piaa 959's.

theres still a lot of good people and enthusiasts, but there just seems to be shit ton more idiots and pieces of shits now.

[edit] i just noticed that the original post for this thread was a year ago and then i read OP's "update"

Get a dual-channel dashcam.

I knew people would start doing that. One reason I didn't want to get the genuine clear markers. You should get a dashcam. There's even people stealing license plate relocation kits. :/

Kind of related. I ran over some huge fucking rolled up carpet on the freeway going about 50 mph... fell off of some idiot's truck. and now my left side marker is about to fall off :[

Damn that's messed up, I hate that some of the 86 owners are because of mommy and daddy, and think they are all high and mighty because of it. Near a local high school, a BRZ owner revved his stock brand new car( that's ok) but then when I started up my car nearby him, he snapped his neck. And then when I passed by to exit the area, he yells "SCION SUCKS". But majority of the "enthusiests" I've seen on the road usually are pretty chill.

lol that guy was a douche. Band wagoner these days. I think of it as foot ball. I love San Diego Chargers like I love my 86. We don't win often but the die hard fan stays till the time runs out

I bet it doesn't happen in Europe.

Not to mention, whenever I park in my apartment complex over night( when the parking is full, I park across the street at the school). Whenever I park overnight in my complex, theres always something intentionally on my car, random trash wrappers, but its majority soda. Either someone is totally jealous or has a grudge against me.

[breadcrumbz]

That really sucks.. I work hard for my car and just the thought of someone damaging or stealing from someone else's car is infuriating. Take it up to the man himself, not his property.

[chaoskaze]

I feel bad for op, but wait where u live in LA? I need to make sure I don't park my car never next time I visit. :3

you guys should just take out that stupid metal tab on the side marker, drill into the bracket the holds it and run a smal zip tie, much sturdier and easier to take off. and safer too probably
