The wife called me at work to tell me that someone had stolen one of the fog light covers off our blob STi !

You can see the screwdriver marks where someone has levered it off, I was hoping that it had just fallen off somewhere.

What really annoys me is that it has to be someone with a Subaru, it isn't going to fit anything else ?

These pieces of s**t deserve to have their fingers cut of with a set of bolt cutters !

 

Could be an owner but also anyone who can look on ebay. Look how ridiculously priced the pro drive wheel caps are. Any tosser with a tool can pinch this stuff and flog it on.

When it's just the one though it does make you think who's nearby and has been on the look out for your car.
Sorry to hear dude

 

F***, man I'm sorry. Was looking today at security features and trackers but bits like this just mean people are f***ing desperate

 

The lowest common denominator will always contrive to make a quick buck by the easiest means possible.

Break a couple of bits off a car, can easily get a tenner for them.

 

The aftermarket items are fair more difficult to steal.

 

Some people just don't have any morals. Like the cünt who stole my autistic nephews ipad off his knees when he was sleeping in hospital yesterday.

 

Just looked in the for sale threads dude and you beat me to it

 

someone took both of mine. B*stards. Why only one? Do you think they got disturbed half way through. price of new painted ones is somewhat eyewatering.

 

That is outrageous

 

Bloody hell TV, does your Subaru-based bad luck never end?!

 

This happened to Mk1 and Mk2 Golfs when VW discountinued the side mouldings and arches especially on the 90 spec Golfs.

Mine where tea leaved three times - then I found 'Sticks like ****' - never stolen again.

I actually started going down the scrappy and picking the bits up for a score, then selling them on eBay for £150.

 

I remember when kids though it was cool to pinch the badges from cars in the late 80's, particularly VW ones.

I really would be up on an assault charge if I caught some little **** messing with my car.

 

LOL !

Just waiting for the current one to get hit by an asteroid !

or spontaneously combust !

or get kidnapped by a band of roaming gypsys !

or run away to join the travelling circus !

 

thats just made my blood boil mate what a fkin scumbag , hope karma comes around and fast

 

I had the front end of my classic stolen 3 times back in 2004, come to the point it was costing me £500 a time to replace, and I had enough and go rid, Never had any other problems with any other cars sat on my drive, but for some reason Subaru's attract people from 2 ends of the scale, you got the owners who can afford to pay £10k+ and then you got the other owners who can just about afford the insurance/tax/running costs and a car that costs £1000 at most, who would be happy to steal parts from the more expensive Impreza's.


Dont want to stir it up, but its got to be a WRX owner with STi fog light cover envy!!

 

Replacements should hopefully be on their way to you today Jon. All boxed up and ready to go.

At least I can be ruled out of being the guilty party due to envy, im going backover from sti blanks to wrx surrounds!

Oh and also agree about the two ends of the scale, its becoming rarer to see an impreza thats newage or older thats just a normal day to day car to someone. Most that I see seem to be either enthusiast or toe-rag owned depending on the price bracket (Just to keep any keyboard warriors at bay, certain exceptions do apply etc etc)

 

You have got to be kidding I'll stick a tenner in a whip round to replace it

 

Is this any use?

I wouldn't rule any of that out! lol

 

Yip so will I.

 

Absolutely sickened by this!! 😲

 

Yeah it's absolutely ridiculous. It's one thing stealing stuff from people but it's another when it's something that makes a big difference in their lives. The police have said its gone for good so his mum had to buy him another one today. It's literally one of the very few things that can grasp his attention for any length of time and make him happy.

 

Me too, outrageous

Edit - just seen it's already been replaced.

 

I missed this post, sorry! That's a great offer and gesture, glad to see some people still have a heart!

It's already been replaced as I said. I will however pass on what's been said here. Thanks folks.

 

Scum of the earth ....

 

They came back for the other side !

Could have been last night but we think it went this morning between 9am and noon with the car parked on the drive !

Would the death penalty be excessive ?

 

thats shizzle man, get yourself a cheap cctv camera, film them, find who they are, go take the items back, and slash their tyres.

I imagine they will be back when you replace them, this time, set the trap and make sure it costs them way more than its costed you.

 

Ah no way! At least you didn't have the new ones on dude

You going to super glue those on??

 

The Ultimate.
