Car Vandalized for the 3rd time, I turn to you guys for help

Well, its the 3rd time at my apartment complex this has happened. Previous times, they just broke a window and didn't steal anything so I didn't bother to claim insurance and just fixed it myself.

This time, they broke in, stole my hood, K&N intake, progress front strut bar, stereo, amp, and trashed my alarm system, and clipped all the wires visible to the goddam human eye.

I'm fed up and i'm selling the car once I get it back in one piece.

What I am asking for is help from fellow members. I need the following components: (this is for a 2001 EX coupe if it matters)
1) complete stock suspension assembly
2) stock radio
3) stock wheels/tires
4) stock air box assembly
5) stock hood (silver)
6) stock exhaust

I'm not asking for any crazy favors, but if you know ppl who are selling those parts, please post here.

I will probably have a FS thread for whatever's left of the car:
1) Tein SS-P's (very new, didn't even get to use it for 6 months)
2) Rota grids in gunmetal and silver lip wrapped in Yokohama's (less than 3k miles on both)
3) 2001 EX Civic coupe restored to stock (make me an offer)

My mind isn't very clear right now, so I may update with more stuff as I remember more missing pieces.

Thanks in advance to all who help out.
-Dave

also, if anyone is willing to come help me install all the stock stuff back into that car, I would really appreciate that too. Alot of the stuff I didn't install myself, so any help would be simply awesome. Thanks again.

Where do you live? I live in north county. My neighbors car got broken into last night. Anyway I'll trade my Si rims with tires and a little cash for your rota's. If not I have some 15" steelies with hubcaps for you can have those for $30. BTW I'll keep an eye out on craigslist just in case.

thank you 2k2, I'll take those steelies for $30

I live around La Jolla (around UCSD), so I think we're pretty close

I can't drive the damn thing, so maybe you can come to me? I will pay for your efforts of course, so just let me know if you're ok with that.

I would trade u you if i were still interested in keeping the car, but i'm not, so I would prefer the stock wheels instead.
Thanks

Damn and I thought getting my whole car keyed in one long stroke was bad.
Anaheim is crooked compared to Los Angeles, which is just ghetto.

I thought La Jolla was supposed to be a nice rich place?

Sounds like it was planned.

Hey...sorry to hear about he misfortunes.....I have a set complete set of LCA's, OEM Struts w/RS-R Springs, Brakes, etc. etc. from the conversion I just did. Hopefully this offers a small amount of hope. I also have the stock radio with the little drawer style shelf and all the hardware needed. You can take it all for free if you want. Just let me know what your schedule is like. PM me and I'll give you my cell.

I thought about camping out there....since they target my car and only my car.

Its a huge aparements complex with thousands of units and 3 floors of gated underground garage parking. How then got in and out with a ****ing CF hood is beyond me. I'm almost positive its an inside job by some bastards who live in the complex.

I have no sub, the amp was used to power my speakers, so there's nothing flashy about my car except for the external modifications, and I guess that was enough incentive for some people to break in and take it all.

Thank you all very kindly.

I'm not going to trade my Rota's for other rims, just because it'll be upgrading the car and doesn't really make it worth anymore than it is. I just want to fix the window, get it back to stock so I can sell it. I'm sorry.

the value that the dealerships claim on the worth of your car + aftermarket rims is NOT worth it. Its better off for you to sell off the rims on their own.

Thats my experience. Here in SD, people are rich, and stingy as f*ck

and since La Jolla is 30min frmo the border, car theft rate is unbelievably high.

I was just notified that a brand new Harley Davidson was stolen as well. -_-

I hope those crooks get what's commin to them.

after the second time I would have moved to a smaller more secure complex. God that sux. living close to the border can't be good for theft. Hope you get it back to normal.
