WTB: Rebuilding my stolen, strippped JDM front DC2
Hi guys. Due to some lowlife d!ck$ stealing and stripping what I had worked hard on for over 5 years, I'm now back in the "rebuilding" phase of the game. Here's the before and after pics...warning, not pretty:
Now I know there's a ton of work ahead, so I'm gonna list the parts that I'm gonna be looking for first, then as I collect more and more parts I'll update this post with stuff I don't need anymore, and stuff I still need. Some a$$holes in SOUTH EL MONTE took my $hit, and I'm not gonna let them ruin me or what I was building, so H-T, pls help me show these lowlifes that hard work and doing things the right way can pay off! Thanks in advance, and here we go:
JDM Front, prefferably black, but any color is OK
Still have the hood and core support, only need:
JDM ITR Fenders
JDM Front Bumper
JDM Front Grill
JDM Headlights (Black housing preffered, but I'll take SIR-G's too for the right price)
DC2 Rear Bumper (98-01 and black preffered, but open to any)
DC2 Rear Valence (The piece that sits between the rear bumper and hatch)
Both Door Panels All they left was the door itself, so I need everything that goes on the inside minus the glass.
Rear Tail lights (I've always preferred the 98-01 all reds, but I'm open to any year/style as long as they're OEM and clean, not cracked or broken)
That's what I'm starting out with, once I get the body ready, then we'll move on to the motor, and I'm gonna need a ton of stuff there too, so like I said, super thanks in advance, and all your help and input is greatly appreciated!

Thanks my man! Its peeps like you guys that make the game fun (although expensive at times, haha!), but there's really not much gained by dwelling on it now, so I figure my best form of therapy is to get back on that horse, start rebuilding and not let this get me down. Thanks again.

Thanks bro!
Sad part is that the pic I posted doesn't even do it justice bro. JDM Front, fully built Skunk2 head, JDM B16 Pistons, Mugen header, Spoon Cluster, JDM 98 Spec 4.7 Final Drive Tranny, and had a stealth install Alarm put in by none other than Desmond (WRX-killer-STi-eater), best in the biz IMO, maybe I just caught a defective alarm and they towed my ride away...I better cover my wrists up before i start grabbing knives, haha!

16 years and 768 basic stealths installs and now this. I never imagined this would happen and they get this far. One thing I can not beat is a tow job. I can also tell you from looking over the car the theives never got anywere close to the alarm or its wiring. I hope you theives are reading this. I will say this will never happen again. This I can promise you. You will get caught if you ever try to tow this car again. I got something planned for this car. And I can say you will not get past it. You got lucky this time.
Rob like I said when I talked to you. I going to personally help you rebuild this from the ground up. Its will be bigger and better. Half the parts I have in stock. So we are good on that part. I also have some parts to donate to this rebuild. Tail lights you can take off the list, climite control you can take off the list, cluster you can take off the list, I still need to make a list of all the small stuff. We can now say my car has a brother now.
