Way to tell ppl where you park... Don't cry when your wheels get jacked.

I would applaud someone if they stole my wheels in a UCF parking garage, on campus, during the day, put it on blocks, with less than 3 hours of park time, not knowing which hours I park there.

@notice~ I try and flash every tsx I see. you should do the same. maybe ill catch you one day.

not on a slope with a locking stud... dude it's secure during school hours. It would be easier to tow my whole car away before they steal my wheels.

^^ wouldnt really matter if they didnt care what happened to your car.
wheels are easy to jack.

2 people can take all 4 wheels in a matter of mins.
locks are pretty pointless too.

Wheels locks don't stop thieves, just slows them down.

Took my friends car to discount tire because he lost his key and they showed us how to do this...

I seriously doubt someone would go through that much trouble to hunt down and stalk joe to steal his wheels in a very public place during the day. If he drove some high end car with 5k+ wheels on it then I would say he is stupid. He is still fat though.

Hey, someone who was thinking the same thing I was! ^^

lol I know wheels are easy to steal... but in reality no one steals wheels on a college campus during the day in a parking garage that is monitored. juss sayin.

If I were to steal something though, just steal the whole car and act like your a tow company. 4 wheel carts and your whole car is off the ground.

hahah yea.. i actually was shown that by someone who used to steal cars n stuff a loong time ago. a screwdriver + hammer = shattered lock.

also showed how a tiny piece of porcelain from a spark plug tossed at a car window can shatter it with hardly any force and noize.

cars/stuff in or on cars are VERY easy to steal.


LOL@Bob.
i dont think ive ever been called bob..

yeah plastidip is holding up just fine! still looks glossy and clean. I use interior wipes to clean it and it seems to be holding up. The only part that doesn't look good was my fault. When I was installing my new shift boot and shift knob I wasn't careful pulling up the center console and there is a small corner that has started to peel next to the change holder that is NOT AN ASHTRAY.

I may fix it when I install my short shifter adapter... or maybe just leave it cause I'm lazy.

Unfortunately... not good.

I noticed a super small area on the lip that the paint had knicked ( like the size of the "period" on your keyboard) I thought I would touch it up when I had time.

A couple days later...

I was f***ing retarded and went through a roll through car wash, and it ripped up part of the paint where the nick was. I was mortified when it happened. So right now I have a sticker over it until I can talk to my paint guy. Its gotten bigger since it happened. If I were to use my fingernail I could literally flake it off. The paint just can't stick to the polyurethane like it should.

I'm really disappointed... but if I can get it fixed for under $50, I will only hand wash the car for the rest of my life, and be very vigilant about nicks, and stuff in the paint.

Oh well.. as opb said " You have to pay to play"

hrmm.
ive never had a problem with painted poly.
someone didnt do their prep work right.

ive painted plenty of poly with rattle cans and never had a problem with it chipping.
you just have to use some adhesion promoter and a flex agent before base.

I have a hard time believing he didn't paint it correctly because he has been in the business for so long, but the flaking off that is happening right now really makes it seem that way.
Idk maybe the pearl tri coat has something to do with it??
