Wow, the guy that did that is an utter moron.

If he's that stupid I'd count on him coming back to the area.

I don't understand, the G35 doesn't even come with projectors right? Depending on where the ballast is located, he might only make off with the bulb and housing, which the housing does no one any good. The bulbs are worth almost nothing themselves. Even with the ballast, he'd have to get all four pieces and the going rate is maybe $150 tops.

Ouch that stinks :(

I know how you feel, I just had my car stereo stolen out of my car last week while I was at work. They dented the side of my door, popped out the drivers side lock, took the radio and stole the brackets attached to it that are actually part of my car. They are all asses! And since it's a '94 Sentra, it's not really worth fixing the dent :(.

That deserves an ass-whooping. Much more so than egg on your car :D

Just check ebay, there is a whole market for solen (eh-hem replacement) hoods, bumpers, grills, and lighting assemblys (turn, hazzard, head, etc).

people nowadays just have no fvckin' respect for other people or other people's property. It's pathetic.

Statistically, there is a high propensity for no one to do anything when they see a crime being committed because they assume someone else will be responsible. This is why traveling in larger groups isn't necessarily good.

What an asshole! Poor G35 :(

It's not as bad,but when I had only a few thousand on my G, a focking van from a lane next to me launched a huge rock, cracking my windshield.

I hope karma pays back tenfold.

yeah you do, you have to steal all four parts, and since the car doesn't have projectors, it's worth maybe $150, probably less. Payoff is not very good, I wonder if thief knows what hes doing.
