Default Things never cease to amaze me.

I swear the things people will do. I get home from Alderwood mall and notice that the plastic triangle piece on the front passenger door is missing!

Why would anyone want that piece! I was just standing there staring at the place where the trim piece was. I was pissed! I remember things like this happening when I had my Honda, I never thought it would happen with the Lexus. I know its a minor but it still irritates me.

Now I gotta call and get it replaced. I am glad that there was no other damage than that.

Sorry, I just need to vent.

That sucks dude, really sorry to hear about that. Some people are just scum. You could talk to mall security maybe see if they have cameras out there and try to make out who it was.

ouch, that sux.

to prevent this from happening again, you can install cameras around your car that when theives or @sshole touches your car it will take pics. then you can send it to the police to try to catch the scumbag.

Thanks guys.

I thought about going back to check with mall security, but I figured it would end up just every other time, I had something happen to my car at the mall. Security would show up, I'd have to fill out an incident report, they'd check the cameras. Basically, it would be "ok we got a pic of person or persons who did it" and file it with the cops. Then nothing...

I have the new part on order already. Thanks, chums! So that puts my mind at ease.
