    everyone shut up and look for the car, thats all we can do, sprayglo did not have a damn thing to do wtih it, think how many people went to the shop while your car was there sitting... think about that, its not thier responsibility to hide your car... so its not the buisnesses fault

    im not saying he is right to say it could have been sprayglo but i know how he feels. I had two black guys come to my house the day before my bike was stolen and talk to me about my bike while trying to sell papa johns coupons. THAT NIGHT my bike was stolen.......then later it was seen by my neighbor when the guy pulled up next to her at a stop light. The guy riding it was a black dude and she happened to see 4 black guys on the side of the road load it into truck and dip out......now it may not have been those two guys that came to my house that night but when you look at it EVERYTHING that happens around a situation seems to much of a coincidence, especially considering it was never messed with for the month it sat there until that day. Same thing with what happened to him and his car....I'm not saying its right or wrong to put a specific blame on anyone or any business on a message board but I would definitely let the investigating officer know all circumstances that happened before it was stolen as i did when my bike was jacked.......

    like i said im not pointing fingers...sprayglo does a really good job and they did a damn good job on my car...i would still refer anyone to go to the shop just for thier prices and good service. Its just the situation...theres a couple more things to the story but im just gonna let it go...as i type my car is prolly gettin ripped apart and trashed...not much i can do about it. As far as insurance i only have minimum coverage...so the next car i get is coming straight from my pocket. anybody who tries to start drama with this post just needs to get a life...i posted to get opinions and help and i was just stating my situation on what happened. For everyone whos still keepin that eye open i thank. I guess its gonna be another long while till i get to good point with a car again. Gotta start at the bottom. i will repeat for the last time I am NOT saying sprayglo did anything.

    Did you ever take the advice on page one and go down and look around the apartment complex's on Buford Highway? Because when Hondas where getting stolen hardcore for a few months last year thats where a bunch where found, sitting there waiting a few days to make sure they didnt have Lojack... If you didnt take that advice, you have already missed your chance thats for sure.

    i think the best thing to get out of this situation is that if you are going to invest money fixing your car, you should consider getting proper insurance coverages. you don't neceessarly need full coverage, but make sure you pick up liability + non insured motorist + Comprehensive coverage. all of those will cover you more than liability only for a price of no more than 20-25 a month but cheaper than full coverage. just my 2 cents.

    Default !!!CAR FOUND!!

    The car was found...cf hoood was stolen, the rims were stolen, but were replaced with the same or more amount of value as the rims were on the car...wierd huh? they stole my battery but left me a battery and they stole my intake along with subs, amplifier, and passenger racing seat. The front end has some damage prolly due to towing but the biggest deal about the car was that the report from the police was IT WAS NOT HOTWIRED!!! somebody made a copy of my key. The ignition system was not touched at all. Just lettin everyone know and thanx fer everyones help

    you know the vin # is actually visible from the front windshield (as it is in your dash)... anyone who can copy the # and then get a key made could have done it. some insurance companies actually give you discounts if you cover the VIN # from the dash.

    yea too bad though its only 3 rims and 1 steelie so i need one more...the battery was brand new but it didnt fit my car. Were tracing a transaction back on the battery to see who purchased it because it looks fairly new...maybe it will give us a lead or maybe its a stolen battery and it wont do jack fer me.

    sure security patrols that parking deck but they wouldn't think twice over someone w/ a backpack and writing your VIN down while in the deck.. then go a few days later to gank it..... security doesn't really do much at GA Perimeter...

    Just one more reason I keep my vin number covered anytime I drive the civic, especially at shows, I keep that shit covered so no one can get the VIN and come back for it at a later time.
