exxr Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Hey, This is so stupid that i had to post it. Someone stole the grill off my series 2 on Sunday night while it was parked in my carport. I was there and heard stuff but didn't realize what was happening until i saw it on Monday morning. I mean for f9cks sake who does this shit? who goes around looking for cars that they can take parts off? like they can't afford to spend 150 bucks?? WTF? wasn't even carbon or anything and my car is stock as a rock. so anyway this was in churchlands if anyone wants more detail (or has details) please pm me. i am suspicious of a dark wrx that i had not seen before which was parked in the visitors bays that night. and i heard them come and go around the time i heard strange noises outside.. just a heads up for you all who don't have your cars garaged Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/231901-stolen-grill/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomei_33 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 can that be done without damaging the car/grill? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/231901-stolen-grill/#findComment-4070943 Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Dukes- Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Most just pull out cause the clips on them are rooted. but if the clips work you would have to lay down and put your arm up through the bottom of the bumper. can that be done without damaging the car/grill?

Dani Boi Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Far out, they must have had really small hand to get the grill off if the bonnet was down, those grills are a pain to get off if the clips aren't broken.

exxr Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 yeah i'm not sure if the clips were broken from before or not. no real damage done to the car apart from a couple of scratches on the bumper and since i have no FMIC that would make it easy to stick the hand up to reach it Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/231901-stolen-grill/#findComment-4071185 Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWR31 Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 i park my hr31 in the city. as i was leaving the carpark i realised my indicators were playing up. i though a bulb had just blown, i got home to find a front indicator (rectangle one in the bumper) was missing completely, not just the lens the whole lot including wires & plug! r31jspec from r31 forums had a spare he gave me for free Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/231901-stolen-grill/#findComment-4071480 Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Dukes- Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Might look into ways to secure it on, with allan key bolts or something. Pretty sad when you have to theif proof your grill.
