View Full Version : This is Bullshi*
HHRGraphics 08-15-2006, 08:07 PM My wife and daughter returned to the car at Walmart this morning to find that someone had ripped off the rear Chevy logo and tried to do the same to the front. The front is now split in half.
If I only had a baseball bat and a clear shot................... Those bastards would be missing something too.

Damn! :eek:

I hate vandals.

Some people just suck and deserve the BB Bat!!!!!!!!
Good luck with the insurance.
Hey, Wal Mart tapes everything in their parking lot. It may be time to ask Wal Mart security to help. It could not hurt..
Good luck, and I am very sorry to see and read of this.

Hollyberry 08-15-2006, 08:34 PM Thats aweful! I would hate to have to see some hood-rat strapped with your Chevy emblem
captain howdy 08-15-2006, 08:37 PM Time for a custom or billet bowtie. :thumb:

Way to look at the bright side!:thumb:
captain howdy 08-15-2006, 08:56 PM Whenever something breaks or gets messed up on my ride I see it as an opportunity to upgrade. Might as well make the best out of a bad situation. :smile:
SindyDix 08-15-2006, 09:07 PM OMGosh... the nerve.
Well, if anything good is to come from this.... I appriciate you taking pictures to show the damage. I see damage along with what it looks like under the Bowtie, I was wondering. It now appears it's not too diffuclut to remove. (from your second hand experience)
Now I wont be so afraid to try to remove mine before painting it.
TX-HHR 08-15-2006, 10:06 PM I'm with CH on this one. It sucks that someone messed with your HHR, but it does make a good opportunity to paint the new emblem before it goes on.
dbarberaz 08-15-2006, 10:18 PM Dude that sucks. Hope you get it fixed and maybe find out who did this.
jwolfe99 08-15-2006, 11:49 PM A .357 ought to do the trick;)
I prefer a Glock 40cal. but either way make sure to aim for the reproductive parts to prevent their gene pool from populating any farther:smile:
Sorry to here about this hopefully you can get if fixed quick and cheap.. Did you report it to the cops?
giant96 08-16-2006, 01:06 AM Why did you leave it at Walmart? My walmart always has a bunch of idiots hanging out all over the place ..low life kids w/ nuttin better to do

Yes, she did report it to the police but it is not a big deal to them. Seems Walmart has too many crimes that don't get solved and they don't press charges most of the time. The manager at Walmart did take my police case number and said he will watch for the people again. He had a complete description of the guy and truck but no tag number. He said the guy just pulled up as close as he could and then leaned out the window and popped the rear emblem. The front one was too low and when he tried to do that one it split in half. He also said that their video probably captured some of it. I am not waiting by the phone for a resolution.............
Bowtie388SBC 08-16-2006, 08:30 AM HHRGRAPHICS,,,,,,,,Sorry about your HHR..guess this is something to watch out for....Did Walmart let you see the video? If not, I'd ride their ass til I saw it....The Police re-act to everything in Dollar value....this, not being very expensive will not get much of a reaction from the police....but it's the principle of it and I say it calls for a capecktomy....remove the knee caps of the bastard that did this with what ever caliber or gauge is availble at the time.......
Alzonie 08-16-2006, 09:29 AM That just seems to be the way it is anymore! You never know where or when you, or your vehicle, are going to cross paths with some low life two-bit thug who doesn't respect you, or your property!
James06 08-16-2006, 10:36 AM I only hope if that happens to me, I can find out who did it. If I could, one of us would get hurt bad!
tonydetiger 08-16-2006, 11:03 AM It's amazing what people will do and get away with. I'm sorry that some idiot damaged the car. But it doesn't surprise me that it happened in a WalMart parking lot.
You've got to love a company that decides not to charge anyone for shoplifting if the item's value is less than $25.
It should be treated as petty larency and destruction of property.

Very sorry for the loss. And to imigane that it happened in Oklahoma. :(
I'll bet "The idot hates Harley Davidison." Good Luck.
dan-d 08-16-2006, 12:02 PM I have the one off of the front of my HHR if you need one. It's been stripped down since I was going to paint it. I can paint it for you. All it will cost you is shipping. I was going to paint it and eBay it, but I'd rather donate it to a fellow HHR person in need. -Dan

Snoopy 08-16-2006, 04:55 PM Cudo's to you, Dan.....a Gentleman With Integrity.
"Graphics", sorry to hear of this damage !! Good luck, with whatever repair is made.
Oh, and I agree with not removing this "person" from this planet. Better to remove kneecaps, a leg, fingers, etc. so they can "limp" around to remember why THEY have had such terrible luck.

Very nice offer...!!!
dan-d 08-16-2006, 06:51 PM Thanks for the compliments folks, but it's nothing. It's the least I can do. We don't want an HHR running around looking like it needs repairs...LOL
SIHHR 08-16-2006, 10:15 PM WOW I hate assholes. Make sure you post what you replace it with
HHRGraphics 08-21-2006, 03:57 PM Dan sent me his front emblem. Thanks again Dan! I am still thinking about what to do with the rear emblem area.

courthousedeb 08-21-2006, 04:08 PM That was a great gesture on dan-d's behalf. Kudos to you Dan. :thumb:
Now I'm sure we have got to have one more person here who has one laying around that they aren't using. :smile: C'mon folks...cough them up. :lol:
I would be happy to help...but mine are thankfully still attached to my HHR...and I'm a WalMart junkie. :lol:

Are you in South East OK? My brother has had similar occurances of vandalism...home, autos, just weak people carrying on a feeble existence.
dan-d 08-25-2006, 09:24 AM HHRG, I just wanted to let you know I got the hood and hatch support covers a few days ago. I haven't installed them yet but they look real nice. I'm going to try installing them this weekend if the weather holds up. Thanks, Dan :smile:
HHRGraphics 08-26-2006, 02:57 PM Dan, I also got your packiage and have the remains of the old emblem removed. I have the gold bowtie blacked out and clear coated. Going to give it a couple of days to dry. Thanks again for the trade!
Halfj99 12-29-2006, 02:18 AM sucks to hear man, had somone steal the centerpart of my front bowtie as well
