    Angry Fixing my stolen car.

    Hi,

    My car got stolen two weeks ago by an indian dude straight from my driveway, successfully recovered by the police.

    How it looked before was stolen.











    After being stolen:












    After using multi-purpose paint thinner, grease remover and various of wax products I managed to get the paint off and restore the color. Also bought new grille, headlight and bumper cheap from the wreckers. I got $2500 from the insurance as they refused to touch the car.

    At least the thief took time to make that paint job look inconspicuous

    Also, in for close ups

    I take it they were attempting a colour change, to make it EASIER to spot.

    Pretty damned sad. I hope the rest of your car is okay and that the thief serves time.

    sorry to see this man :(

    Victoria is definitely not the place to be
    Maintaining a 12 year old Audi is about as expensive as Charlie Sheen's coke habbit.
