Angry Someone tried to steal my HIDs!!!!
WTH!!! I just came back from Home Depot an hour ago and on my return to the car, I noticed 2 deep scratches by my driver's side corner light where it looked like someone tried to use a hammer to pry out my headlamps but couldn't get them in time. From what I can see, I don't have any dents but my paint's scratched up pretty bad to the point you can see the metal. I'm so pissed right now

I'll take a shot in the day light tomorrow so you guys can see

Sorry to hear. This is why I never drive my nice car to Home Depot or Lowes. Too many shady people-not just the customers. Last time at Home Depot in Rialto,CA an employee was selling drugs out of his Cadi!!!!!

And they don't look out of placecarrying tools around.

Hope you get the paint taken cared of soon. I hate people who messes with other people's things.

DAMM Mike, that is BAD NEWS bro! Looks like bad things always happen to nice people . Do you think you should claim it? I know it's not good to claim it, but what is insurrance good for if you can't use it.

I'll take pics in the day time so you guys can see it. Let me know if its worth claiming. I'd hate to see what would have happened if I were in the store for another 15 mins??

SOrry to hear this Mike. People just cant earn things themselves, they have to steal it. It is getting harder and harder to have a nice car because there is always someone wanting to steal it, or parts of it
