i know this could be random, but does your aparment complex have cctv at the entrance or elsewhere?
if they do, see if you can spot white lexus es, old model and license plate
xsg-6125 or xsz-6125.
yesterday a two random looking dudes in that car came to my neighborhood parking lot and parked right next to my car and i thought it was very suspicious so i remembered their plate. it also has yellow ricey foglight.

thats the model of the car, just incase so that you can spot them ease.

If you ask me... this is your perfect opportunity to upgrade to some wheels you really like. Why not turn this into a positive and treat yourself to some killer Volks, Advans or something like that?

When my stereo get stolen out of my 350, I used the money and some extra cash to actually upgrade. I put in a better stereo, better speakers and a top of line alarm system. Made me feel better before my car was even fixed.

Probably no damage other than scratches. The frame is hard as a rock and, unless they slammed the rotor into the concrete, it should be OK. Both are easy enough to check if you have the equipment - most of the larger body shops will have a machine that can check for any frame warpage and every tire and alignment shop I've seen can check the rotor (when in doubt, toss it out; rotors aren't that expensive compared to how important they are).

Thanks for all the inputs. Any good body shop around Arlington, VA you guys know about?

I hope these F*cks get decapitated with a spoon!

mick 11-25-2012 12:23 AM

sorry about what happened to your car. That truly sucks!

My concern is how can you prevent this from re-occurring, if you are going to replace the rims with the Nismo rims that some people have suggested?

definitely go through your insurance company and let them investigate/charge the garage. make sure they pay for new rims and all the service it will come to a pretty penny

BlackZMamba 11-25-2012 12:38 AM

LMBmikeZ 11-25-2012 12:41 AM

I think even a swift kick to balls is applicable to this situation
