Exclamation HELP: Got Exhaust Stolen And I Need Help Finding Thief

Guys, I got my Greddy SP2 exhaust (catback) stolen from my house about a week ago, and I need help to find out who took it. It's made for the third gen (generation) RX-7, so if you find one for sale or find somebody around Southern California driving around with one on, please let me know. Also if you know anybody who has just purchased one of these exhausts, it would help me out if you told me who so that I could start my investigation. They also stole a car jack and a couple of other parts from my house, so if you hear of anything, please let me know. The help will be greatly appreciated, and I'm sure the kicking *** will be greatly enjoyed if anyone would like to join me once we find the sucker. Thanks beforehand for everything guys....
-Erik

yeah, as my buddy artin said, we took it off and put it in between my car and my house and next thing you know it vanished. the suprising thing is that i don't live in some place where jackings occur, and the biggest thing on the news in my area is that some girl broke her nail while playing basketball or something, so it's a bit weird. let me know if any of you guys come accross anything suspicious cause i really need the exhaust back; my car's a bit too loud for my taste with nothing but a downpipe on, haha...

haha the neighbors were probably sick of your loud *** car so they figured they'd steal your loud muffler. plan seems to have backfired though if you're running around with an open downpipe now.

hahahaha!

thanks to all for the help and advice, especially that craigslist thing. i didn't even think of that website dude, thanks. i don't know what you mean by if i reported it yet or not. if you mean reported it to the cops, no, i haven't. if anything, the cops will be glad that my exhaust got jacked. the cops around where i live don't do anything but give stupid tickets to people who don't even deserve the tickets just so they could meet their little quota that is given to them. thanks again for all the help and support guys....

why do all of my threads always end up with a fight? hahaha! i guess everyone was kidding that you did it artin, and you (and i at some point) didn't know that, and thus the whole thing ended up with a big confusionismistic thing. let's all just join hands and sing the mazda anthem: zoom zoom zoooom, ooooohh ooooohh ooooh yeah....! (just incase you're lost, that's from the old mazda commercials with that one british kid who came onto the screen and just said "zoom zoom"; after he said that someone in the background sang what i just typed above)....
