I was trying to do the math with that and also was confused

+1

It should come out to around $300 tops

For an iS lip, centercaps, and roundels?

Bullshit, unless your centercaps are solid gold.

yes it really made my day even with my discount it cost me $500

thats what im worried about, centercaps and is lips are so easy to steal.
the thing is,you have to be an enthusiast to know how much those parts are worth and then take the time to steal them. the everday person isn't going to care or notice your lip or centercaps at all.

its so sad :-(

Yes, it was mega bullshit. Upon first walking out, all we saw was another e30 parked in front of where mine was so I figured someone was just driving by and checking it out.

We were probably 75yd away when someone in the group spotted him and shouted, by the time we got there he had gotten up with his long screwdriver (which we could see even from 50yd, perfect for opening hoods), tossed his toolbag in the car and bolted. Nobody caught all the details at once, as we were dispersed a bit.

A while back, I came out of hooters with some friends to find some asshole kneeling in front of my red e30 with a long screwdriver (wanna get that hood open, eh?)... Well, I couldn't see him at first since he had parked his e30 in front of mine so that noone could see. He had a big bag of tools with him. Had we not walked outside, that asshole probably would have taken (at the very least) the IS lip/ryanG splitter, euro ellipsoids and grills, and sparco strut bar just to name a few.

As soon as we saw him, we shouted and he bolted - got the plate number, called the cops, no luck.

Honestly, that guy would have had the shit kicked out of him. I will not tolerate anybody fucking with my car, especially an enthusiast trying to steal parts.

Can't believe you guys let him get away especially when you had people with you. You guys even had alcohol courage. And he drove an E30? I woulda taken the car from him, he doesn't deserve it, unless maybe it was a bronzit Eta rolling on sportmaxes.

Whenever I park in a structure I always try to park in front of a wall or pillar and get as close as I can, originally intended to protect my smoked smileys but I guess it will prevent any thefts too. Thing is people still back into my car, fucking truck drivers. I have a decent sized truck too and I know how to drive the damn thing, its not like my car sticks out I am 3/4 of the way into my space.

^ This person you are talking about would not have gotten away from me.

Why did you not come up behind him and surprise him? Were you guys that far away that he was able to get his bag of tools off the ground, into his car, and be able to drive away before you were able to do anything?

What a douche. You would expect someone like that would be on the local forums and whatnot since he knew what he wanted. It's not the everyday person who knows what goodies to take from an E30

Havent had anything stolen of my E30 but way back i had 2 diferent cars violated :)

I was so happily suprised one morning to find my -83 315 E21 standing on bricks.. those wheels were gone with the wind.

The other one was my old -76 Toyota Corola KE-20 coming home for the weekend from my military service something looked odd ... I went closer, no steering wheel. and the hood was open also and basicly anything that comes lose was gone.
They were kind anough to leave a few empty beer bottles in the car.

It would drive me nuts if shit got ripped off of my car. Right now I don't have to worry about it though because right now I do not have an iS lip or centers for my weaves.
