Warning for SoCal FitFreaks!! Watch out for your bumpers :/

So uh.. someone tried to steal my rear bumper. -_-
I suggest you all do as I will and buy a 500 pack of zipties, and start zippin :/

What's wrong with people these days.. I didn't know there was such a high demand for these things :/ But if you're in the Irvine area especially, watch out :/

I wish! I would have shot him in between the eyes. I hate thieves.

I came to my car and noticed they pulled off all the clips on the left side of the rear bumper. They seemed to have given up after that though, LOL. But in the process, they broke off one clip on the outtermost part of the bumper, right where it meets with the rear panel, and so that part isn't flush anymore. -_-
