Just thought I'd post up a little warning on here for zoners that live around the Slough area.

Went to fit my HIDs today and noticed both grilles were undone and loose, one of the cracked from the top where the tried to pull them off to get to something behind them. Someone obviously has unscrewed both smaller screws sometime this week as they were not broken loose are lacking any screws when i washed the car last week.


I think they must of seen the yellow Laminex filmed main beams and though they were originals and worth some money and tried to pinch them. :x

Just though I'd give people a heads up as it's a pisstake to have things damaged/nicked. :(

There is obviously more then two of them coming. 1/4 of a brain cell each, but at least they have given a thought to the number of doors needed a˜a

Thanks for the heads up

west londons the worst imo, i had my e30 parked for one night, and the gutter trim on both sides got nicked!

now everytime i go i put the alarm on full and remove my centre caps...

i remember last year i came back at about 4ish in the morning there were two european lads looking at my car, i went up to them and said why you looking at it, they seemed panicky and said nothing nothing nice car is all... walked away got in their car and drove off.. bit dodgy considering the e30 was parked on a no through road..

even in maidenhead just down the road, our friendly neighbourhood rasta with dreads down to his feel had all four centre caps stolen,

he made such a song and dance about it and put a wanted sign up on every corner of every street.
