Damn, that sucks. At least they left your car. Had a customer get his Suburban stolen so they could steal his wheels. They did a lot of interior damage too.

Hope whoever did it gets caught and does real jail time, not like that scumbag Nikolas Lampkin of Fort Worth who stole my car stereo (and several others) and only got deferred adjudication.

nate- sorry to see this happen to you and your car. keep an eye out on craigslist/ebay for your stolen parts i.e. if they are readily identifiable.

I know the feeling, they took mine a few years ago off my 07' TLS. Insurance company paid out $6,000 because they crushed my spoiler & rockers. There's a BIG black market for our wheels. They won't be caught, cops & detectives don't care.

BTW I wouldn't waste my time keeping an eye out on craigslist, if you spot the same wheels for sale what are you gonna do? Call the police? hahaaa No cop is gonna go knocking on somebody's door because of stolen wheels. They're gone.

Damn man... thats some serious damage to your under-body spoiler.... Sorry dude... I couldnt help...

But yeah... freaking thieves... I would have said that you should have the locks on your wheels, but that security is only to give you a false sense of security. A thief who wants your wheels will take your wheels. even if you weld it to the suspension....

Hope your insurance re-imburse you at least part of your bill....

I am in queens by kissena park.

Yea, had TLS rims and pretty much brand new Dunlop winter tires. Had gorilla wheel locks but that doesnt really stop anyone from stealing your wheels.

All four rotors were on the ground, those need to be replaced...the body shop didnt get a chance to get it on a lift yesterday but mentioned rockers were damaged. I am worried about suspension, brake damage, etc.

Anyone with GEICO go through the same situation? If so, how was the process? any issues?
