Default They stirpped my car.

My dad told me today that they stripped my ******* car. They took almost everything besides the motor, which I'm glad they didn't, but I dont know why they would leave it. Maybe they didn't have a way to take it with them.
If anyone see's this **** trying to be sold around 954/305 area please contact me.
They took:

Greddy SP2 axleback
EX Cluster w/ red lighting
Distributor
ECU
Omnipower Coilovers
Megan LCAs (Red) /Lower Tie bar(blue)
Headlights
Amber Corners
WW RS front Lip (was painted BLUE)
Wheels similar to Rota Slips (SPRAY PAINTED Gunmetal, wrapped in dunlops plenty of thread left)
Lug Nuts (Open ended J-speed or some **** like that, i forgot the name, aluminum)
Radiator
AC Compressor

My car was at a shop getting painted, and it was the last day it would be there and THEY ******* STRIPPED IT.

I dont have any pics, but when I go home this weekend, I'm going to take some pics. And if anyone wants to help me out and sell me some **** to get my car back together, that would be great.

^ It was stripped while at the shop, sometime after hours. Could be inside, or thieves were probably keeping an eye on it.

Not many shops have space to hold ALL the cars they are working on, I have no clue how it happened nor know the person, but sadly that crap happens when they leave the cars outside. The dumb part is that they know its a hot commodity, and should leave the oldsmobile and the buick grandma car outside and the civic within, then they wont have to pay for the all the parts that got stolen. Good luck getting your stuff man, sorry to hear about the loss.

It was left inside the whole time except for that one night. I DO NOT ******* KNOW WHY THE GUY LEFT IT OUTSIDE, which is why it sounds shady.

Good man, don't leave thieves get the better of you.

You need to talk to the shop owner. It was in their hands and they should be held accountable. Im sure the owner has some type of insurance in case something like this happens.

If he is not willing to cooperate, take it to small claims.

Good luck with this, hope it works out for the better.

But most shops don't hold accountability for it if they have a sign posted stating they are not responsible for break-in's etc...something to look into.
