Default Stolen front fog covers!!!!!!!

So, I have a great day out to Chessington world of adventures 09/08/09, and get back to my car to find the front fog covers have been stolen!!!

If anyone has, or knows someone who has a pair for sale... 2003 STI in Blue.


The police cant do anything as no CCTV, so I have decided that as I am so annoyed that maybe a little incentive is in order

£100.00 reward to the person who can return the covers or tell me where they are!!!

They had the two air holes in each of the covers, which were backed in the mesh alloy, like the rest of the front of the car.

GRD has the vehicle listed on the upgrades page if anyone wanted pictures which shows the front fog covers!!!
STI in blue with stage 2 upgrade on customers cars page.

Yes yes, maybe cheaper to just replace, but its not the point!!!.
Thanks in advance.

I have just bought one from the dealers for mine, it came to £63 with vat so if your reward pays off your still saving a bit.

Im seriously thinking of using some Sikaflex to glue mine in to stop the thieving scum!

Sorry for your loss. It so sad that people still do this sort of thing and lets hope it wasn't a fellow Subaru owner doing it because thats even worse in my opinion as they should know the time, hard work & cash we put in to our cars.
Chop there thieving fingers off that's what I'd want to do.
Years ago after a hard days work I came back to my Vauxhall Corsa Sport and found some scum had knicked my mud flaps & rear spoiler off my car. This was in the middle of the day....parked in a busy village...and no one saw a thing!!! Such B.S.
Someone saw them doing that and didn't even dare question them to see if that was there car. I put up signs where it happened and offered a reward but nothing. Hope you have better luck tracking your bits down.

I believe you can buy tamper proof bolts to bugger up people who do this.

Had this happen a few years ago..

The only problem fixing them in place is they'll probably do damage to the bumper trying to remove them, which they inevitably will anyhow..! That will cost you a lot more than the fog covers, which contrary to popular belief are not as much as people think, ready painted and stickered up from the main dealer..!

Just bite your lip and pop in a new pair and hopefully, as it was somewhere you're not likely to be going to on a regular basis, it won;t happen again..!

Same has happened in my hometown, a few of the lads have had the classic ones nicked.
As well as their limited edition badges of the rear end.
