This is what i woke up to this morning :(
Read before you scroll!!
So i came home from working on my project car at about 1:30AM and i had to be up at 4:00AM to go to work the next morning. Well i woke up a little later than usual, about 40 minutes later. So i rushed out of bed, got my necessities and bolted out the door. Walking to my car this is what i find....
  
It is my beater so it doesn't really bother me. It just sucks that it hampered my plans for today and that i had to buy new wheels and tires from tirerack ASAP. I just find it odd that all the cars around the civic are worth at least twice as much and have much nicer wheels. This had beat up Si wheels on it and crappy kumhos with no anti-theft lug nuts(new ones will have it). And i'm not in bad neighborhood at all, i'm just curious if they were scoping out the car beforehand or was it totally random.
Well i should have new wheels and tires in tommorrow, shit happens, i've moved on.

Sad to hear, especially since it was just a lottery wether they stole the wheels from you or your neighbours.
My neigbourhood is pretty bad, people here steal almost anything...we've been burgled a few times and lost equipment like a garden hose or wheel barrow...people must be so desperate.

The upside is i get new wheels, but i just thought this was random and i had to share. Either way, what comes around goes around.

No, not front end damage, but it is about a cm. away from getting it. Hopefully the wind wont blow it over.

Well that's good to hear at least... How do you plan on raising the front end?

damn that sucks man. We have tons of old spare wheels/tires that would fit that car too, mostly steelies but they work. Where do you live? most parts of the city they won't really mess with a car like that when there are much better ones around.
BTW did you ever figure out the whole seatbelt issue? That really sucked how they gave me wrong prices and shit.
