Spoiler's off. Bubbled, packed, ready to ship. My car looks so fucking ugly. It's like a virgin, I feel naked without it too.

you will never be able to bolt down a piece of fiberglass strong enough to stop anyone from ripping it off of the car.

even if they could not steal it all in good condition, all the bolts will do is cause damage to the trunk, and break the spoiler into piece's....which would probably piss off the thief enough to cause other damage to your car.

Well, you have an option of bolting the side pieces down. Also they're two brackets with bolts on each side for the middle piece.

with the mugen replica; i doubt it will be much of a theft magnet
people will think its just some cheapo wings west or oem part that can't be sold for much on the flip side anyway
i'd worry more about your stereo system, zex kit, and engine...

couple of my friends have go to thier cars in the morning and notices lip kits missing, rims, mirrors, sway bars.

its all the easy stuff that ppl see and just want, a couple minutes at night and your car can be stripped.

Receipts are a must. I even printed out some of my paypal transactions and got written contracts from craigslist deals.

Allstate, you're in good hands.

That's why everything I have now will be either dirty, looks stock or garaged.

its not ghetto. its a middle class neighbor hood with nice cars. so when someone less fortunate spots something they they like or can make a couple bux they just take it. their lots of jdm integras and civics rolling around and a few boosted ones.
friend almost had his integra type r stolen while he was in school. the theifs put in a diff ecu, cut the alarm, diff key ignition, then he went outside for a smoke and seen a guy hanging over his car, they fucked up the electronics in his car and since then he keeps it garage kept and rarely drives it.
and since the economy sucks ppl do anything for some change.

a FOID card is $5, wait the 30 days for it to arrive in the mail...then invest in a nice shotgun, a 12gauge can be had for less than a mugen replica spoiler, and you only need a box of 5, 1oz slug's.

i live in a good neighborhood, and my car's are garaged. i save all of my reciepts for parts that are worth anything.

i also have a good amount of firearms to protect my investment's from losers who steal from people like us, we work hard for our thing's.

the center part of the mugen spoiler has two little brackets that clamp in down to the trunk section... that combined with heavy duty 3m tape make it pretty difficult to get off without snapping it
