Dude that sucks. I am not a fan of the port holes, but the point is someone f*** up your ride. Thats just not cool. Did they do any damage to the car when they pulled them off?

No real damage, just the idea that you can`t have something without someone messing with it.
A little buffing and a spot or two of touch up paint, it`s passable. I`ll work on it when the weather gets nicer.
Still waiting for pix of what a HHR "should" look like though .

Sorry to hear about the vandalism!
Just hope somebody doesn't do this to Dory.

Sucks that is happened. At least no real damage happened.

To a point, I agree with caddytruck, some do go way overboard on the PepBoys look IMO.....

I have pics of mine and will show them whenever you like....

Agree whole heartedly. When I had my Crossfire and was working for the college I stopped by one of the buildings briefly to do a building check and by the time I had come back (maybe 15 min.) someone had keyed it!!!

BB I Feel you, last Friday someone did a drive by with a BB gun on my Uplanders rear window. This is the second time in 6 months and my Insurance company doesnt cover glass replacement due to vandalism. That rear window is $400.00.
I was furious, and I told the cop that showed up that they better catch the guys responsible before I did or theyd be taking me to jail for assault too.

You`re welcome to show your pix, I`d like to see what you did to make your Ride unique, yet so tasteful , that all will agree that you stayed "UNDERBOARD".

Mr. Beauty, Why do you feel so angry towards people who have a different opinion than yours? I would like to post some pictures of my car when I get a chance. I could save you the time and just tell you it's boring!!! No 3m sticky tape or spinning hubcaps. You seem so opinionated, yet denounce any others. Puzzling?

Mr. Caddytruck, Why do you feel so angry towards people who have a different opinion than yours? I have posted pix of my Ride, and you felt you had to make a negative comment.

I`m not puzzled, I know where you`re coming from.

PS. as a side note. I saw the portholes on a custom ride, I liked the look, I could`ve had holes punched in the hood, then have to someday pay the price when selling or trading in.
Some people lower their ride, put bigger/different rims, do stuff to their motor, so forth and so on.
I live in a city that grows potholes, lowering my ride or buying rims to get damaged, just isn`t something I feel is prudent
There`s no reason I can`t do what pleases me without worrying if it is offensive to others, or having someone rip me off.
People steal rims too, I don`t hear any comments about, "That`s why I`m not a fan of putting rims on a ride".
The offer was to get you to show you creation. Maybe I can find something I don`t like about your ride.

I agree with everything you've said. People should NEVER conform.
Life would be a real bore if everyone thought & did the same thing !
