ps- is this a bad time to ask how big spacers your running on your rear wheels?
I think the back are 5/16"... I don't really remember the sizes... I do know it was the smallest spacer the store (Pep Boys I think) sold...

Almost there just finishing up my background now. I know how it feels, i had my car keyed two years ago. Got ahold of survellence tape, got discription of vehicle and person in the act, got a partial plate number. Called a friend and got a id from the partial plate. Come to find out it was some dumb bitch that was friends of some girl who lived im my complex who had a crush on me but got pissed when i would not give her the time of day. To make a long story short, with a little investigation of my own, and a small favor from a friend she had to pay for damages, and no longer allowed in complex or she will be charged with tresspassing.

jesus nice work.

Sorry to hear about your emblems. Ever consider getting them painted on by a good painter or someone with an airbrush? Or somehow getting a bolt behind the emblem so you can affix it to the body with a locknut? Hope you find out who it was. g/l

I thought about it but am glad I didn't because I would have probably come out to a torn up fender instead of just a stolen emblem...

Sorry to hear about the loss, bud. Some people make me sick. I know how it is, some one stole my rear Z28 emblem one time, and kinda scratched my paint while doing it. Lucy for me, it was easily covered by, just another emblem. 70 Dollars for emblems would have me pretty steamed too.

Personally, I wouldn't have posted about the markings just in case they are smug enough to show off their newfound emblems. It would have been nice to confront them, have them deny it, then go "BAM", lookey here...my markings.

Here's a link to some I found on ebay, I don't think its much cheaper though:
