Angry VIOLATED; This is what I woke up to :[

So after a nice drive to work and getting coffee. I end up spilling it all over my carpet and shifter. Then go to my trunk to get something to clean it and........this is what I see. :\My trunk spoiler and roof spoiler gone :[

This kind of thing makes me so mad.

sad to see how ppl are still easily able to rip it off even it's bolted down.

just be on the look out in the black market/craigslist/ebay. most likely the person who stole it owns a 3g.. :/

Damn rat bastards!!! People will steal anything. It has to be damaged, and not reusable?! A oem new one is like $300 which is probaly less than you deductible, I would just remove the bolts and clean up the area and get an aftermarket spoiler, a painted would be like $150.

The first part of your story is why I don't allow drinks in my car, and why I don't miss my cup holders.

That's just messed up, people have no consideration what so ever. You can stay oem if you're going thru insurance (based on your deductible) otherwise an aftermarket will work.

Yeh....but I have come to the realization that if someone wants something bad enough then there is no real way to stop them. People are shit heads. This will always happen.

dealership charging near $700 for a type-s lip spoiler?????? OWWWWW

Sorry to hear..... i guess you should start being careful where you park or something...idk what to say really. You should be real careful and pay attention to your wheels....

To remove the trunk lip spoiler is not that complicated. Like one of the members said on here, USE 3M TAPE to make it harder for any idiot who feels like taking what doesn't belong to him.
If you get a new one, simply glue it on to the trunk. im thinking about doing this

That blows.

I feel for you guys who mod your cars and park them on the street. There would be no way in HELL that I would be modding my car if I didn't have a garage.

GL with everything OP.

Sorry to hear about your spoiler. As the other couple posts was wondering where in Jersey you were from? I'm actually looking into getting a trunk spoiler but if those kinda things happen that sucks, makes me second guess. I heard a lot more about stuff being stolen off cars in Linden when I was there but down in Brick, I havent heard as much.

sorry OP, but it doesn't seem the spoiler was 3M double sided tape on your trunk. it was installed only with the clips?

Damn sorry to see that...but before I even clicked the link I knew the owner was from either NJ or NY. That seems to be where all the nasty shit happens on this forum. You want something stolen or vandalized move to the northeast lol.
