My 2008 NBP Type S 6Sp was parked in my controlled access garage attached to my luxury apartment complex in Bethesda Maryland. I went out to it at 6:40 A.M. only to find my whip missing the trunk lid, center console (navi, radio, air vents etc), air bag. My trunk still had my brand new Nintendo Wii and Wii Fit Plus + 2 Balance boards still sitting in the trunk! They only took my car parts! Anyone else have their car stripped for parts?

 

Sorry to hear the bad news! While I can understand the air bags and center console electronics I am confused as to why they took your trunk lid and left the wii. Hopefully insurance will take care of you (even though its never an easy process to deal with them).


Now might be the worst time to ask but do you have any pictures of your V1 install?

 

I do have photos of my V1 install. But they are on my home computer. Also, how do I post photos?

 

wtf? why did you leave a wii with all the accessories in your trunk? It might have been too dark for them to recognize it.

Looks like a good opportunity to install a carputer.

 

This happened to a friend of mine about a year ago. He was in a controlled access garage in King farm overnight. Comes out the next morning and his RSX is gutted. Cinderblock under the backend and his spare tire propping up the front... Freakin rediculous.

 

wow! do u have pics?

 

wow thats messed up. Not to smart on the thief's part to leave the wii and accessories. I know the navi console is real expensive if you are going to buy new. Hope everything works out.

 

wow, sorry to hear that. any cameras?

 

How they took out Navi in your secured garage without hearing them is confusing me

Nonetheless, file a insurance claim ASAP. Also file a police report. TAKE PICTURES.

 

upload them to a photo hosting service like photobucket.com and then post the link here.

 

I guess someone is doing Non-navi to Navi conversion.


that sucks man, I hope eevrything works out for you

 

Crazy...

 

Sorry to hear about the theft. Were there any cameras in the garage? Any witnesses?

Were any other cars vandalized?

 

im guessing its someone who knows you. did u offend anyone lately????

 

thats crazy sory to hear that...they stold my jdm front end integra right from my garage..smh people now a days cant seem to work for their things

 

find out if there were any cameras...

 

While my car wasn't in a secured parking garage, it was in the driveway of a fairly busy street. About 3 years ago, my 2002 Altima was stripped much in the same way as yours. They stole the radio, the airbags (both driver and passenger), the seatbelts and my radiator. They left my ipod in my glove compartment though.

It was entirely shocking to see. Even more shocking was the cost to replace everything. Because they had cut so many wires to get to my airbags or whatever, they had to rewire the entire car. The cost to my insurance was damn near $10k!! On top of that, they had my car for nearly a month.

*sigh* I hope your car won't be in the same state mine was in.

 

in what area of CA was this in so that i can avoid it?

 

They took your radiator? they must have been idiots. Did you have HID's?

 

West LA near UCLA. It's really NOT a bad area. Just some thieves looking for some gray market parts.

 

Sorry to hear that, keep an eye on ebay and Craigslist to see if the thief lists the items.

 

Does this secure place have video cameras? You might be able to find the culprits.

 

Geez thats crazy!

I've always had a bad dream of this kinda stuff happening to me (my car) but only a dream.

I'm a nice person.......please don't let it happen to me. Sighing.....

GL with everything.

 

Sorry about your loss, I think we should go medieval on criminals like that, if I caught them, I would take them down to my basement and chop their fingers off if I could get away with it. I hate low life criminals

 

WOW! sorry to here that! I have the same exact setup you have NBP Type S 6spd. I would now put a security system in the garage area with just a motion and siren so these POS people will get their ass caught! I project manage for security cameras, alarms etc and they are always coming in handy when stuff like this happens. Matter of fact that is one reason i installed a camera in my garage and wired it for alarm to my DVR so that if motion happens camera comes on and alerts if someone is in the garage at any given time. GL and hope everything goes well.

 

hopefully there is cameras that effin sucks

 

Could potentially be an inside job, someone who works at the complex and has access? Either way that sucks man, they'll probably never get caught unless there were cameras. Good luck dealing with insurance.

 

The only good thing is that they wont be able to use the navi and radio cause they dont have the code.

but that sucks nonetheless...hopefully insurance will cover it.

 

Did they break a window to get inside? I know that we don't have shock sensors in our window so if they had busted it out, the alarm wouldn't have sounded. Sorry to hear about your loss. It just feels like you've been so violated after seeing something like that.

 

i see. so i assume you went to UCLA as well go bruins..unfortunately we lost that game against our rival =/

 

Yes you did! Go USC!!

Anyways, I HATE thieves like a passion! I've had two cars stolen and the feeling is horrible. Its weird that they targeted specific car parts but its not surprising. The first car I had stolen, the thieves only stole my aftermarket parts that I just had bought a week before (we think the shop I bought the parts from stole my car, long story), plus they only stole three rims and left the fourth one on the car. That's some odd shit! Sorry to hear about your situation, hope everything works out for you.

 

Dude-that sucks. It makes me sick thinking about it.

 

haha. Yes, I went to UCLA and couldn't leave West LA. Love it too much!

Let's not talk about last Saturday

We can at least say Pete Carroll is a huge dick for calling that last play.

 

WTF! i know to watch my car like a hawk now. That sucks bro, hope you get everything replace by insurance.

 

Crap!

 

pics? that has to be the worst "secure" garage Ive ever heard. sorry to hear about it bro.

 

dat suks dude...but if u have recipts for the wii the insurance should pay for it...soo gud luck on that

 

Inside JOB!!!

 

^^ Melvin, OP is not that far from your location and I think we might have a connection here

BTW the trunk obviously was stolen for the Type S spoiler.

 

Actually my friend is lot more closer to this other location that I am
were you in the new movie Sherlock Holmes lol
Thank you for your help JnC
