getting done? Dont think so! You almost have no chance of catching them even if you had them on CCTV unless you have the number plate of the car they drove off in.

Only time u'll get justice if you catch them red handed and beat the F*CK out of them, there n then 8) you could even be nice n let them keep the splitter after you dished out their beatings.

ye, wouldn't bother either.

I suppose getting 'done' isn't a worry then, as pointed out by Kangman. Maybe the shame of getting caught? No, they obviously have no shame.

Ye, spoiler stealing seems to be 'in' atm, probably some internet trolls!

Thanks sanitroc1, I will pm you in a minute. I'm going to check the prices of the sporty splitters, I could use this as an oportunity to upgrade, may look daft with no other body kit though.

"Dont think so! You almost have no chance of catching them even if you had them on CCTV unless you have the number plate of the car they drove off in."

Even then the Police would only be interested if they did 31 in a 30 limit as they left the scene,

I'm sorted now guys, got chatting to an old guy who had a spare one. He had done a 3 point turn in a country lane and when he remembered that was where it had likely fallen off he went back and found his, had a spare in his boot and let me have it - I love owning an E30, people are so helpful.
