^ just my luck the other night when i came home i parked my car in the driveway and forgot to lock the door well later that night i heard a car stop across the street at 3am i looked out and saw a guy walk to a corner house so just went back to bed....

needless to say woke up in the morning and they stole my wallet, $450 camera, my ipod nano and my sunglasses!!!

so no new pics as of now lol! luckily i had no $ in the wallet just CC's but i canceled them all ... they tried using my Macy's card but they took it away from them and they caught them on video tape so the police took the video and said they looked familiar ( 2 hispanic males)

we shall see if they get caught.... next time ill be waiting with my 9

oh boy...that certainly sucks, man. I forget what it's like to be garageless... When I used to not park in a garage, if I heard something or someone, I'd usually click the lock button to let them know I'm paying attention. FK...

About the gun...unless you park in your home...leave it in your nightstand and let karma and the cops deal with it.

WOW that sucks bro.. The same thing happened to me about 2 weeks ago. I always lock my car twice but idk what happened that day. I had my 7 year old ipod in the car and also had a magazine left between the seat and console. In the morning when i got in i saw the magazine was moved around and Ipod was gone : (.

that sucks bro....thats fucked up....

on a serious note, luckily your car was not locked....if they were compulsive thieves they might have broken your window and such for the items....or messed up the car trying to open the door and stuff....

well chin up....shit happens and we cant do anything about it....

sorry justin, that really sucks man. :shakehead

at least the car is not damaged tho...and the items CAN be replaced. will insurance cover anything under a vandalism/theft claim? i would at least try and see what they say.

i know how it feels to get robbed like that...not a good feeling. like someone just stepped all over you. hope they catch the guys, let us know what happens and stay positive bud!

Was curious if you have any rubbing going 265/30 at the back?? Correct me if I am wrong but it appears you are running OEM camber specs in the rear to fit them??

they only really get dirty after rain and the dirty water gets on them..... but i can pretty easily clean them off with a micro fiber towel and some spray since the rims have open slots makes it easy

i dont have any rubbing in the back.... i trimmed off all of the inner fender metal with a angle grinder so now my rim when compressed tucks into my fender and misses the fender by the thickness of a credit card.... super close but no rubbing.... my camber is around -3.8 out back and is from being lowered i dont have a camber kit on the car to correct or to add more camber.... if i decide to put spacers then ill have to pull fenders a tad or throw a camber kit on to add more camber

Loving the car! Question about the brembo's. First off they look AWESOME!

Was thinking about doing the white but was worried about how quick they would get brake dust all over. Are you running brembo pads also? If so, how quickly do they become full of brake dust?
