Center caps stolen, F U thieves

I have a 2011 GR Sti and just noticed my center caps were stolen yesterday. I was positive it was there yesterday moring before heading out for work. It must of happened in Milpitas when I was at my dentist. When I got home I came to realize my rims looked different and realized some asshat stole them.

I just can't stand people who steal, if I ever catch anyone messing with my s**t you will get a beat down. Just ranting. Anyone else still have there center caps on? If not how long did it take for someone to ganked them.

Yup. Happened to me several months ago. Now I use a dab of glue to keep them in place.

Yeah I've had a few keep turning up missing on my cars. I think it's some kids in my neighborhood. No proof but it seems a very juvenile thing to do. I like the glue idea though.

Sorry to hear, man. Either glue'em on or don't run'em at all (I never ran center caps personally).

I had center caps with my Volks before I sold them, and consigned to only putting them on at meets and shows. Never to justify theft, but at the risk of it, how much is the swag worth?

Thieves can go suck a tailpipe otherwise though.

Yeah I won't even bother putting on another set of caps. There's no point, it will get stolen again. And those fu***** left dents on all the rims ��

this is why even if they tried to take mine out... they would fail. Mine are sylicone glued on and have no way of popping them out unless its from the back due to the design.

Um, that just means they are going to damage your rims trying. Why do I know that? Yeah...thieves aren't smart, or they wouldn't be thieves.

Thieves are morons, even if they are just kids doing something dumb. If someone stole my STI caps, I'd be Overbear angry.

So I guess they'll just damage your rims in return for pissing them off even more from a score Lol.
