Angry PISSED!!

Well I was at work I usually go from store to store since I am a wine stocker.I get out of the car and I notice one of my chrome valve caps is missing I am like WTF and I looked again yep its missing I check out my rear one from the same side and its really loose. I know i keep them on REALLY TIGHT sometimes i even need pliers to get them off lol. Man was I pissed stupid douche bags wanna steal one of my valve caps n tried for the rear one but did not succeed. That's y people can't have nice things. I was going to buy some from AM but gotta think twice if my regular chrome ones get stolen every here and there. Good thing I found one in my garage still pissed though that I got that s**t stolen. I guess my look all you want but please don't touch sticker didn't work.

Quit shot I took with my camera phone, as soon as we put them on <2 months ago. If you did not know they were mustang rims (thin cobra centercap) they look really damn good on the car, or so my friends and I have concluded.
They are original off of my brothers 01GTvert but wear the center-caps I got on my aftermarket offset bullitts for my old sixer hah.
Also, the car looks messed up, but the reflection is a basketball hoop lol

Yeah I always thought about doing that when I was a kid, but not to nice cars, yet again I never did it though, just always thought about it. I find it pointless and stupid, besides pissing the person off you get nothing out of it. I've had the same thing happen to me not to long ago, but the actually cut my valve stem. Then weeks later or so my center cap fell out. Yet I believe it was the same rim as well, it could have been stolen, but I think it fell out. Now I have Cobra R center caps and they aren't coming out for sure. My car hasn't been touched since then, thank god.

Come try mine, I tightened mine with a cresent wrench. Mine are those type that have sides to them, I don't know what you would call them. But if I were to get a flat I would be screwed unless I had something to untighten them.

I don't even have lug nut locks and I just got my rims powered coated Gloss Black.

Well i've seen them broken "just for fun" its always fun when you arent paying for it... I seriously doubt a kid coulda took the caps off they were so tight that pliers are needed 2 get them off someone really fugged wit em tryin to get em off. I could see marks in the brake dust that my rims had.

That's exactly how I figured out someone messed with mine. I think for me it was just a welcome to the neighboor hood. HAHA

Uhhmmmm...And why do you have brake dust on your wheels?

No really, that sucks. Might only be valve caps, but next year it will be a stereo, a GPS, or maybe they'll just take them 5 lugs off, and take the caps with the wheels attached.
