so i went to McDonalds a couple days ago and came out to see that there has been yet ANOTHER attempt to jack my clear corners!!! this is the 6th attempt already :/ im thinkin about just taking them off now. i locked em in w/ a couple of zip ties when i first installed em but people still try!!! and its always at random places, like the mall, or In-n-Out or the club or something! I had a small crack in my bumper and now they actually snapped my bumper with this last attempt! when they first cracked it, i drilled a tiny hole to slip some wire through and it was a cheap low profile fix but now its preeeeetty noticable that its broken there :/ this pic is of right side of my bumper, i hope that this NEVER happens to any of you. Needless to say, i need a SUPER sensitive alarm system!



you can see the 2 zip ties i have through the metal brackets arent going ANYWHERE, the bumper gave before they did :/ and the top right is the top flat part of the bumper(and the little part that clips onto it) thats being held to the main part of the bumper by the wire.

Edit: sorry, the title was meant to be more of a complaint than a question lol, i hope none of you would do this **** to someone elses car...

 

That really sucks. This happened to someone else on here but the csuckers CUT the wiring off so all he was left with was a couple of loose wires and nothing else. I hope they never succeed

 

funny someone would try to steal an item like that... If they have a G I hope they could afford a 35 dollar pair of clear corners... where is the trunk monkey when you need it

 

they mess up my s*** too man. cheap bastards i just going take them off and slave them off my bumper.

 

it sounds nasty out there in cali. i know there are a few g owners in philly, but in pa there really arent that many owners, and prob even fewer that know they pop right off

 

tape thumb tacks to the backside for the next person that tires give them a nice suprise

 

It always amazes me that people try to steal parts that are so cheap to buy.
Some D-bag stole my two hook cover a couple weeks ago.

 

yeah, it is. ima be movin to philly this december for school, so thts kinda good to hear(hopefully less theft). but i know the east coast doesn't have as many parts floating around like cali does :/

 

Might be a little overboard but what about gluing them down..

 

No way! Imagine is come csucker comes by with a flat head and pulls off some paint!? Too bad you can't rig it up so it will electrocute someone unless you open the hood and disco the battery.

 

Did this happen on or off base? You need to keep an eye on your car more.

I have metal pins securing mine in, luckily nobody has attempted to steal them yet.

 

noooo, haha look at the pic, the zip ties are MORE than enough! im just complaining that my bumper got destroyed in their attempts :/



yeah, all off base. I'm always super paranoid about my car, the wife hates it. but the truth is that i cant always be watching it :/

 

ThatswhatImsaying

 

WOW what kinda loser cant afford some $35 clear corners, I just put mine on Friday, now i have to worry about someone stealing them! I'm gonna see about using some zip ties now too lol...

I'm guessing you don't have your wheel well liners in place which is why they are so easy to get to

 

they were, this pic was taken when i was installing my HID H4's for my lows
