Spoiler stolen

last night i had my TL-s Spoiler and emblem ripped off. So beware of this and if anyone sees anything fishy especially a WDP lip spoiler with the emblem being sold, please post here.

while i see if it is worth it to go through insurance, are there any sites that sell a replacement spoiler for cheap? (ebay vs OEM). thanks in advance.

Get some wheel locks sooner than later if you can. After my spoiler (and later, my badges ) were stolen, they went for my rims too but the locks/alarm stopped them.

Sorry to hear about this. I hope everything gets squared away

one of the first mods i did for my car was a 2way alarm...and it still allows me to use my factory alarm with it too..wheels locks will slow them down but sumone who is good will know how to get them off easily...the alarm is your best bet..i have a Viper 5902..and it has an awesome range..u can even add different options that allow u to know exactly wat is going on..so when ur car alarm goes off, so does your key remote too..look into it..i have a friend who does car audio/alarms for a living if u need any help..he can do the install at his place in canton..just not sure where u live..this info goes for anyone else who needs help with stuff like that..he did mine and i've never had a problem..I still remember when Francis told me about his spoiler being stolen..i freaking hate thieves..i learned my lesson and will be installing an alarm in every car i ever own...even if it's in the garage..good luck bro and hope all goes well soon...
