Default :( freaking Miami thiefs got me.

So after years of being so carefull with my Integra the Miami thiefs finally got me slipping with my IS. Not only did I have to deal with the suffering of having to take and watch the twilight movie with my wife but i wake up the next morning with both my roof and trunk spoiler being stolen. The only saving grace was that they were both double sided taped on so my paint did not get scratched.

Just goes to show you no matter what you drive thiefs will always target you.

One other thing and i dont care if i get flamed my wife wants me to get the wald copy spoiler can any one that has gotten the copy tell me how happy they are with it. You can PM me if you rather not post.


Well thats the end of my rant. Rear ens looks so naked now

Sorry to hear about your loss. What trunk spoiler did you have before? OEM? Depends on the Wald replica, I've seen some decent replicas and some terrible ones. Usually slight medication might be needed to make everything fit and sit flush. Body shops can work wonders. Good luck.

Thats the messed up thing it happend in the coral gables area really nice neighboor hood so it had to be some ahole
That was passing by.

Also i had the oem lexus spoiler. I dont want to mold it in as I have to pay for my wife university tuition so i cant spend the extra cash to mold it in now but maybe in the future.

Sorry to hear, from what i seen with member here the wald rep have a good size gap cause it doestn still flush on the trunk. Best bet is not to get another incase they come back.

Yeah it was my mistake i had left the car outside for two nights in a row. All they did was yank it off as all it was held on was with double sided tape. Ive learned my leasson now and now im parking the car behiend my wodden fence next to my window where it can be seen at all.

Ive already started to search local craigs list and if i find it i will take one of my brother inlaws whom are all cops to give them a good scare. There are also three IS's around my neighboorhood so i will keep an eye out to see if any of them suddenly get those parts as none of them had either or.
