TX Liked my spoiler did you?

Well, someone decided to liberate the spoiler/tail light cover off of my FD here in Arlington. So...if you know someone that suddenly has one on theirs a heads up would be nice. I was going to get rid of it cheap anyway and go another route so if I see it on your car I may let you keep it but may feel the need to compensate myself in another manner as a matter of principle. Sooo...you'd be better off burying it in your backyard than putting it on your car or trying to sell it online. Karma can be a ************.

Dude that sucks hardcore. i hope you find the guy. like kill joy said, you don't **** with another man's vehicle, especially owners that are as addicted to their cars as we are. Stealing or doing something to my woman is one thing, but mess with my car and it's gonna get ugly lol.

Ugh I've wanted one of these for a long time and to find out one was going to turn up local. Was it a Shine piece?

I'd say I'd keep a lookout, but I never see any 7s aside from my own and it doesn't leave the driveway. I've never been much a fan of Arlington for this reason.

Watch eBay. Seems like when stuff like this happens the parts don't stay local.

I'm not sure who manufactured it. The Shine spoiler is actually the one I want since it doesn't cover the tail lights at all.

I'll definitely be checking Ebay.

That's what I thought... Is your car SSM with a V8? If so, I've seen your car; beautiful. Sorry to hear about all of this

Nope. That wouldn't be mine. My car is brilliant black and still quite a bit of body and paintwork away from being beautiful or even average. LOL Right now it's probably one of the more banged up FDs in the area and is and will remain rotary powered.

Nah, I might be considered a bit of a wheel snob but I'd never put Konigs on a FD.

Haha don't worry about it, I'm the same way. Quarter panel primered, but I'm rolling on Volks. I just saw a black/red FD that looked a little rough at Grapevine Mills mall that day with Konig somethings on it so was curious.
