In the process of finding a garage at my new house, only security was a detachable wheel which was off. I NEVER EVER leave it out but this was an extreme case....My roomates never believed me but oh well--- its not that much that got taken just annoying
They broke the window to get in, found my hidden hood latch and popped that bitch but didnt take anything from the engine....

All they took was the front end?
Don't take this the wrong way, but that's why I won't own a Honda. On the same note, I won't park my car in North Jersey though either.
Thieves can die a slow Middle East death. Hard to steal parts with two nubs.

they store the front end??? That's so random, and sucky. If I was a thief i would look in your car and and be like there isn't even an interior, ill move along.

If they were honda theives that car would be spread out all over the country by now.
I went to a honda-tech meet yesterday, there was a group of kids walking around and taking pictures of peoples licence plates with their camera phones. THen they were talking about "gettin motors"
It sucks but you have to deal with it.

Very sorry to hear man. And I agree, this is the biggest reason I won't own a Honda. I would love to have a project car almost exactly like that, but I don't want to take this kind of risk. It just seems inevitable almost. Good luck man. :(

If you guys are worried about the "steal & strip" kind...
Alarm system:
Let the theif break in. When he starts the car without deactivating the alarm the countdown begins. Let him drive it for 1 minute, a certain distance, or achieve a certain speed. THEN shut the car down and activate the siren/horn/flashing lights/Lo-Jack.
When he's stuck in the middle of the road with a dead car making all that noise.... It'll discourage him in the worst way.
Other options: Move to Texas where you can shoot the asshole when you find him stranded in YOUR car.

wow E, that sucks!
Why was it outside? So they took your hood, headlights, bumper and lip? I am just happy they didn't take the whole car, which must mean they were amatuers. Good luck bro, if you need anything hit me up!

They only stole the front end, hood, and headlights?

Oh people would get their jaws knocked and their phones smashed...almost guaranteed. That's bull****.
ON TOPIC: Sorry to hear about your car...that's retarted for the front end...that's really stupid....best of luck and if you need any MISC Civic parts...I'll see what I can do. Just let me know.

do u have full coverage?? prob not on that yr civ... sorry bro. go with a EK front end.
StreetEG

Well heres the explanation for everything---
My car is pretty much stripped down to a functional race car. It has none of the "mad jdm" pieces that are so highly coveted. Nothing on the car is really anything thats desirable to the common theif---aka stereo, center console, radar detector, takatas, name brand steering wheel, strut bars yada yada
Anyway as for the insurance--- progressive wont give me full coverage on the car for less then 2500 a year, which is pointless because to replace parts on a civic costs way less then the difference in yearly insurance parts. ANDD they wont even cover all the money I have put into it so its like pissing money away.
anddd finally for the alarm part of it a good alarm thats gonna stop these kids is worth more then the parts they stole and for anyone thats professional its a ****in civic they are gonna find my alarm brain and steal it anyway....
Its sad to say that this was partly my fault for keeping it on the street for more then a month---THe house I live in is in between roomates so the garage is poacked with **** so i didnt clean it out....needless to say i made ****in room today

No ****in way!! I can't believe this crap! Well I hope you bring it back the way it used to be or even better.
Oh and I agree with Mike. Send the thieves over to the middle east and let them take care of it. They know how to do it right. CHOP CHOP!!

I can't believe this. It is so weird that they only stole the front end. If anyone sees someone selling a CF hood with black sealer around the skeleton on the underside and a small scratch halfway up the passengers side, let E know, because it is his.

That is really ****ty, especially since we were just talking about that the other day.....there is definitely no shame in the Honda game. What's your plan now?

damn dud ethat sucks...what sucks worse is that this wall all targeted probably cause they knew whatthey wanted/needed and watched ur car to get it...

10-16-2006, 11:18 PM
WTF?
What kind of theif takes a hood, lights and bumper, but leaves a completely exposed CAI and intake manifold just sitting there? Tells you a lot about the caliber of guy that ripped you off.
On a similar note, I wish I could kill people by thinking that they should die.

WOW E, that blows. Same kinda thing happened to my friend Shaun. His neon was in his driveway on a major road in Bucks and they stole his headlights, hood, front end, dash kit, and radio.
Oh...I got my laptop up and running again, so hopefully I'll be able to get those pictures to you by the ned of the week.
