Iugk. Despicable.
Went to the University of Illinois this weekend, had a blast...don't remember very much. Like an idiot, I left my Escort detector mounted on the windshield when I left the car at a parking garage Friday night. I had a bad feeling about it as we walked from the car but, like an idiot, didn't do anything about it. Got dropped off at the parking garage today to drive back to IU and this is what I see. The drive back was a blast. There were also a bunch of "roll up the window, it's cold!" jokes. :rofl
Not only did the *******s break the window, they used a crowbar or something to pry it open for whatever reason, and still broke the window. So now the weatherstripping is ruined, that trim piece is ruined, the window is gone, there is a small scratch on the inside doorpanel from something, and there are small paint chips down to the metal, as if there were a golf shoe driven into the paint.
And not only did the do all of this damage, but they didn't even take my friend's iPod sitting in the glovebox! Nor the quarters on the console! I'm offended! :lol
Does anybody know where I can get these parts? Window, weatherstripping, and that trim piece.

Damn dude, that sucks.
Who needs a sway bar anyway?
You should look into something like that bulletproof 7er that was up on ebay awhile back. It had like ... 1.5 inch thick windows. I'd laugh at someone trying to break that.
Sorry for your luck.

Damn, too bad. Sounds like you're taking it in stride though.
weatherstripping can be had at the dealer or at BMA. I recently had Yves send me some front window weater stripping that the tint clowns messed up.

Thanks guys.![]()
I guess I'll get the weatherstriping from BMA, the trim piece from a parts car (because a new one won't match and I don't have the $$$ for M5 Shadowline, and who knows where I'll find a window.
For now it's the Hefty bag and duct tape mod! haha

I'm sorry to see that. E34 + hefty just isn't sexy. Is that the garage on 5th? It would be nice to know where not to park.
looks like they tried to just pop the door open with a coat hanger or slimjim and then pried for more access. and when that failed the poped the window out. Be thankful they didnt mess up anything else!
now we gonna leave the radar detector in the open anymore?

It was a block away from Green St. I don't know Champaign well. Hell, I couldn't tell you what the bars look like on the inside, haha.
