F*****G Thieves!

Hi guys

Pissed off man, took the family out today in the touring.
Left my e36 convertible parked outside my house. Its a main road, but at some point today some thieving c***s decided they liked the look of my bumper mouldings & pinched both front & rear as well as the drivers door one (that was facing the road).
They couldnt get the front number plate one off, as it was screwed in.

I suppose I should be thankful the w*****s didnt damage any of the paintwork.

This car is mint & spends most of its life in the garage, while i'm working on/enjoying the e30.

It just shows nowhere is safe, they are just so damn lucky that I didnt catch them :x

that really sucks dude them bits of trim are expensive from the dealers too.probs best to try and find some at a scrappie to ensure a half decent colour match.i know its not what you want to hear but it could have been worse like someone knifing the roof.

I know its not the end of the world, but in broad daylight, some people are just brazen. At least the trim is black so should be fairly easy to replace. Just takes away from the e30 fund.
Will also have to invest into a cctv system as this shit cannot happen again.

Nice one, the front bumper needs both corner pieces & the tow hook cover. The rear needs all the trim. Cheers. :)
I think i'll take this opportunity to order a new set of m-tech side mouldings too.

Alright mate i finally got round to looking in the garage but the only trim ive got left is the pieces off the rear quarters as mine was a coupe, they have the msport logo on if they are any use they are in reasonable condition :) Ross

When people see this in broad daylight, they assume it's there car. Sad state of affairs this S*it hole of a country is in...

Hope you get it all sorted soon.

To be fair, if you saw someone working on a car outside a house, you'd hardly expect them to be robbing it. I'd probably have had a chat with them! :cry: :cry:

Friend of mine had this happen to his 325i when he parked it in the Train station carpark, come back after a night out in London to find the car on bricks with no interior / Kit or wheels....as always when you ask for witnesses nobody seems to have seen anything and it turnt out the cctv in the station car park didn't work....... :x
these scum bags should be hunted down and shot :shoot1:
