I didn't hit anything, no scratches, nothing broken - they are just gone!

Like $70 to order both new, but damn, where did they go. Pisses me off.

You know I was in New York City recently with the car, and did leave it parked for hours at a time. Hmmmm I wonder!
Exactly what pieces are you missing? I may have it leftover from my Aero-kit install. If you post a pic or part number and I can take a look.

Oh, and for those actually looking for the story - its a joke. I was trying to figure out why someone would stoop to such low levels, and thought it would be funny to say it was found that the material was worth a lot of money - kinda like why some people are stealing mufflers and, can you beleive this, an entire BRIDGE here is PA.

That's what I thought. No way they fell off, somebody pryed them off with a screwdriver. Sorry for your loss.

I have part #12

I dont have #13, but I do have #14 which could be used as a substitute depending on how you feel about it. PM me if you are interested.

Funny you just mentioned this. Someone got me two weeks ago and I just replaced mine this past friday. Cost me 37.00 apiece. Pissed me off. My car is garaged, so it happened at some store. Bastards.
