Angry Mb Haters

I really dont get why people/kids must go and steal your hood emblem, they knew how to take it off because they didnt break it they just left the little the flat piece. i dont even think they can use it and they do it just for kicks to **** someone off owell what am i gonna do!

A couple times I found my emblem bent out of place in the parking lot. Obviously someone tried to take it.

Oh well. Just buy a flat hood emblem or something.

I thought this thread was about another one of newton's friends.

02S430--You're lucky they at least knew how to take it off. It's not pretty when an amateur tries to take it off.

I dont think there worth it although thats a smart idea considering it probably cost more then our little stars. Well i guess its off to the stealership for a emblem the ones on ebay are $25 not shipped and some are after market might as well get it in person instead of waiting a week, because the way I am if its something for the car i want right away but thats just me

Lol, believe it or not my Dad (he was an electrician mind you) set his car live with power from the house after having his pride and joy stolen then stripped.This was on the driveway not the road on a Ford in 1980 , nevr got a car stolen again and we never had a problem with cats and dogs either.
