fucking people.


also, message the guy on cl about the shades anyways. you never know, he might be lazy/stupid and have gotten a similar but incorrect pic?
Yeah...that's what worries me more about leaving the car unlocked, windows rolled down, and every compartment opened. My friend started doing that after his car got broken into, but he drives a 1996 corolla. I don't think those fuckers would leave an 2008 Evo alone without doing anything to it when they don't find shit inside my car.

Also, thanks for the advice . I'm emailing the guy right now about the sunglasses.

Thats the truth actually. There is literally no way to prevent damage to your vehicle other than keep it stored in your garage 24/7

Whenever its in a parking lot there's always a risk of someone rubbing against it with jeans or zippers from jackets, or just some random douche walking by and being jealous and keying it

Thats what happened to me while I was at BCIT before summer. Came back out to my car to grab something and BAM. Keyed all along the driver's side, and only my car

^ Sigh...that sucks dude...
Well I guess having the car keyed and vandalized is no different than getting it broken into, except for some lost personal belongings. I park my car in my garage at home, but my g/f's garage is full already...

Wow...they didn't break the SUV's windows? You're lucky man~ I'm located in Burnaby, but I work in Richmond, so you'll see me running around the lower mainland lol.

Yeah...I don't park there. I've parked there once picking up some take-out food from that honger restaurant beside it.

Speaking from experience, it's the worst feeling ever walking towards your car and seeing glass around it...

^Totally man... you in SFASC as well?!

When I saw my car, there weren't glass around it...as you can see from the pics, my window tint actually held the glass together and it fell in on my seat. Nevertheless, i felt so pissed off and upset...it feels like I'm missing a limb since I use my sunglasses everyday.

sorry to hear what happened.

I parked my car outside by four points in richmond last night and I felt like staying for a bit coz there were these 2 hobo's roaming around. It seemed like they were gonna break in some cars.

Be careful man... my buddy's 240sx got broken into as well 2 days ago... take precautions man, I'm sure you know how easy it is to open a 240sx's door.

Well, I guess that's a maybe. However, there are way nicer cars around her neighbourhood, such as SLK55 AMG, R33 skyline, MR2, and etc. I'm not saying they deserve a break-in, but if I were the fucker, I would go for the SLK55. Might be nicer stuff in there.

You mean by No. 4 road and Cambie? That's my g/f's place...her garage is full. I park my car in the garage in my own house though. What car do you drive? Maybe I've spotted you a couple of times.

^Yeah... I guess it could be worse. Like you said, the car could have been stolen, or it could have been vandalized all around. However, after this incident, I'm not leaving anything in my car.
