Spoiler OFF

March 31st, 2009 by ShaolinTiger at 9:29 AM UTC - 5,598 views

Can you believe it, I was away in Sandakan for 2.5 days and someone ripped my spoiler off!

Spoiler OFF

What is the world coming to? The top of the boot is all bent out of shape too, I’m just wondering how much it’s going to cost me to fix it.

There goes my Xbox 360. Not sure if it’s worth claiming insurance, will have to see how much it costs to replace first + labour + paint.

ARGH!

UPDATE:

Total damage..

Spoiler – RM270
Paint – RM180
Labour – RM40

Total RM590

Ouch.

It’s quite a common “problem” for Satria GTi and Satria R3 (worse for them coz the R3 spoiler is carbon fibre).

I would suggest you shave off the boot lock too. I’ve had 3 friends whom their GTi was broken into through the rear. Thank god 2 of them had immobilizers so they couldn’t steal the car… but 1 was not so fortunate.

davidlian: Yah I mean the original is only RM270, but how much hassle and damage they caused me. I’d give em RM200 if they left my car alone.

luffy: If only I saw them..

kimberlycun: Yup, dead dead and gone.

spectre: Sigh, what to do.

Marvin Lee: Well it looks like they tried to take it, I had it overtightened though as I know they are often stolen.

zorro: Seemingly so.

Asyraf Lee: Haha yah I agree.

Shireen K: Yah sorhai one, 2.5 days I was away loh in Sandakan.

Kenneth: Yah R3 one is the worst, replacement costs RM1750 as well so that’s a killer. They are very very frequently stolen.

KY: Yah let’s hope this is the end of it.

Michael Yip: Just outside the compound parked outside the mamak.

Myhorng: Yah glad the car was still there (most of it).

Mellissa: Yah I had the side one stolen before (the black strip behind the door). Very sien.

I feel your pain. I mean I have felt your pain ++. My GTI’s Spoiler was stolen, along with my back bumper and the black side strips……..This was last year..kena right infront of my house.

I replaced it with fiber, cuz I have always have problems with money. Now when i’m on the road, people think i have a make-up/make-believe GTI….

It’s so hard to sell it off cuz it looks fake now….

By the way, it cost me RM 450 for the bumper and spoiler with the ketuk and paint job…. the original parts costs an arm..and a leg…

michaelooi: Well I need to do something anyway cos the top of the boot is bent and I don’t know if I can even open it. Plus if I want to sell/trade it and get a decent price it needs to be in good condition.

pik: Hahaha, or an electrically charged shell.

Darren: Yah, this is not vandalism though it’s theft.

feizal: Ouch, yours even worse than mine and right outside your house. I had one of the side stripe stolen before, just replaced it not long ago. I’ll be sticking with OEM parts tho to keep the car value.

seet: Damn indeed. Can I claim back from you? LOL

Let us pray the jackass that stole your spoiler get some horrible payback for his crime.

Karma a bitch.
