should i still mod my car? i was busy praying in church while someone stripped my car

well this was during 1P.M. i parked my car across the street of the church where there was a mechanical shop where they worked on forklifts.

Anyways i went out to check on my car, and my lip and eyelid was gone. Right next to my car were 2 guys working on a white 96 maxima, they were changin oil on the car and said they didnt see nothing. Now i started to yell at the guy, and half of my family, but they said it wasnt them and shiet. i asked them let me see the tape for the camera, but when we checked the tape was gone.

when i called the cops about a half hour later the guy with the maxima dips. Now i was talking to the owner and other guy at the shop and me and my family and friends came to the conclusion it wasnt them.
i parked in a real bad area..

neways ive been going to the that church for over 2 years and never had any problems.

i called the cops, and waited about 3 hours, even though the precingt was across the street. when i left the cops called me about 2hours later, i told them to go fawktthemselves.

Eyelids only look good on one piece headlights, it looks stupid on the stock lights.

It's normal to feel that way about not wanting to drive it. I personally would have got the guys license plate number of the maxima and keep an eye out for him if somehow he gets a new front lip all of a sudden. How the lip was installed also plays a factor, was it rivoted and bolted on? My folks live in NY city but I would hate to have a hooked up maxima there with all the stories. If you have full coverage insurance which I know is an arm and a leg up there i would see if they would replace it. You should be getting something for your money. But to answer your question, no I would not keep modding the car if you are in the city.

dude, sell it if you can…

One guy sold his car the same week he bough it. First, someone hit him while he was driving from the dealership, after that, some one broke one of the headlights and finally the ceiling in his garage collapsed while the car was inside. Believe it or not, it’s a true story.

Damn 2 da max. I hope you have better luck with your car and safety. Its a bit odd as your max's parts are missing there is someone else working on another maxima.

I hope you catch the people doing it, or they just stop.

Also for those saying his car is cursed. . . maybe he's cursed and the car is feeling the effects? the next car would be subject to the same treatment. I dont believe your cursed thought, and best of luck to you.

This thread is weird in that it mentions church. I dunno, I know some people who are very spiritual shall we say, where something like their car getting stripped would roll off their backs like water off of a duck's. There are people younger than us getting their gall bladders removed, and the congregation prays for a successful surgery etc. Can you imagine being in your mid 20's and never being able to eat fatty foods again? Anyway, was just curious why prayer and church were mentioned in the title.

Reason you feel the way you do; you have been violated. It is the same as if someone had stolen items off your person. Being violated, even in this way, is personal.

You do realize that it's quite possible the people who "stripped" your car found it by lurking (most likely unregistered) on this website, and if you post about the fact that you'll be replacing the mods, they'll come back for more.

It also doesn't help that you post about where you park your car on the regular. I'm not entirely familiar with jamaica queens, but I'm sure there aren't all that many churches with mechanic shops and police precincts right across the street. By posting that you're very religious, and describing in detail the surroundings of the church you frequent, you're just as well off keeping your doors unlocked and putting a "steal me" sign on your hood.

There you go. Atleast you had some car to come back to. Some have not been so lucky to see their car at all still there.

2 Da Max- Living in NY is already a disadvantage in terms of vehicle security. I would slow down on having large pics of my car and current mods. All people have to do is google your sn and viola!
