Came out to my STI this morning to find some *******les have nicked both the front fog light covers off my car..... Grrrrrr

No other damage as far as I can see, but looks friggin awful....

********! Sorry to hear that mate.

I'm sure you can think of better ways to start your birthday.

Found a couple on Fleabay, not cheap either.....

not a good start to the day, cant stand thieves. the lad who had my car before me came out to it one morning to find the spoiler,bonnet and a headlight missing. hope it happens to them one day, see how they like it. hope it doesnt cost you too much to put right.

Do these just unclip ?

We had a spate of classic covers and badges going missing up my area.
I even got woken up to a polish lad trying to steal my rear spoiler, a baseball bat
sorted him out.

number plates are worse for being nicked as they're likely to be used for cloning or robberies etc.

I found you had only two options really.......

1) Fleabay
2) Post in the "Wants" section on SN

Hope that helps........

Default Even more pissed off now.............
Don't believe it - came out this morning to go to work, only to find the thieving f*ckers had nicked my fog light covers AGAIN!

Once was bad enough - didn't think it would happen again, but guess I was wrong......... Must have happened sometime during the night between midnight and 6am this morning.......

Got to be someone local mate. You got 2 choices fog lights or copious amounts of super glue.

Think i personally would go with fogs, they could still try to get off if glued on and cause damage.
