Default What do you R driver do to protect your R from theives?

I've already searched here to make sure its not a repost. I know a lot of you R drivers are paranoid, so I'm looking for ideas to stop theives. For examples, kill switches how-to, etc. Trying to protect my EF so lets hear some good ideas.

I've heard of ITRs getting stolen in even better circumstances. Like being in locked garages, and having cars parked behind them blocking them in. If a thief wants your car, theres nothing you can do.

Personally, I avoid taking mine to dangerous places as much as possible. If I need to go to a week long conference in DC, I borrow a car. If I'm going to the 9:30 club or to the movies, I get someone else to drive, etc.

I'm even more simple, I just don't drive it.

Wish I had more time to, but at least it's hidden and relatively safe till I can.

License plate frame says Protected by Desert Eagle .50
Having great insurance plan w/a garage in nice
Knowing who are your neighborhood thugs is a plus

lol, seriously. What did I do to prevent thieves? I sold it. Anything short of that is only preventative, not foolproof. If you want to protect it, get a garage and a beater.
