for everyone

Noticed someone pried the logos off of all of my wheels. Posting pics here so I can get some renlisters to ID the part numbers for me.

I didn't know that still happened.
Can they actually make money on them, or is it just a way to be a jerk?

Yes.

this....

I just wish I knew where it happened. I really hope this was not from my driveway.... Glad they did not try to screwdriver the hood emblem off.

Insurance? Those will probably not be cheap.
Is this what de-badged means?

The assholes are out in force for spring in MN.

So people will buy them for enough money to make it worthwhile for the thieves, and then what...they put them on their Dodge Neon and pretend it's a porsche?

Probably the thief and his friends put them on their belt buckles or something.

A couple years ago someone actually tried to steak the bulbs from the side flashers on our car -- and in the process damaged both the bulbs and the casing, achieving nothing.

No kidding. Saw your post... Boy that is going to make for a lot of work. All I have to do is order some plastic bits.

OK, so I'm sitting here giggling madly like a four-year-old. ZIS IS NOT FUNNY!

Cheers,

people who touch porsches that aren't there's are below contempt. when i had mine, i almost popped the heads off of sol's to brothers when they started messing with my car one day. if it isn't yours, you don't touch. its quite simple.

i didn't know you were a pcar driver :)

i will be again someday.

I read something somewhere once about how there's less violent crime above the 40 degree latitude mark and questions whether it was related to colder temperatures making folks less violent.
And then the thaw comes...

As I understand it, it's pretty consistent just about everywhere that poor weather (rain, cold, etc.) results in a drop in crime.
