      ^. Agree! One time at te ball pick your part someone tried to take off my rear bumper. It was just hanging by the side marker cables. Only saw a red coupe that was suspicious since it didn't have a rear bumber. When I came out my bumper was hanging and the coupe was long gone. Good thing it wasn't stolen.


      But sorry to hear about the lip. That's why I rock the crappy Volvo lip lol I already lost an is lip.

          i would think a good chance also some Honda kids took it too. i know a lot of the EG,EK,EM guys are into front lips. sucks to see people getting their stuff stolen, cheap Volvo lips FTW:weak:

            That Sux! Find the person in your area that took it really bad when trying to defend that their volvo lip was great. Someone got hurt feelings.

              it's a big country man to think someone from a website nabbed it. people see things and then think they can take it that is all. so they want one- hit a dealership find out it's bigger money then their 131.00 budget so they think it's just easier to keep an eye out and when the opportunity strikes steal it. not uncommon.

                Come on...a lip is such a cosmetic thing. Jo-schmoe doesnt care about that shit enough to go through the effort of scouting one out and ripping it off. It would take someone that cares about the appearance of their car enough to do it.

                      I don't usually do junkyards or too many unknown places with the e30.
                      I only do it if i'm really close to visually spoting shady shit like that or next to the car. Sux but yeah thieves are thieves and they will stop at nothing, $1.00 or $1k dollars they will still take shit that isn't theirs.

                          Sorry to see this. Hopefully this thread doesn't cause a bunch of folks to go out and preemptively steal iS lips, or else

                            is the IS that easy to removed?

                              it must be someone who know a good thing or so about e30.

                                NO, you need about 250 dollars in special tools and it takes about 6 hours to remove it!!!!!
