i can't believe it, i originally was going to buy these of manofwood with the rest of the parts but decided to stick with my new lowered suspension set-up to save costs.

Then, i changed my mind but they were already sold to you !!

I even rushed manofwood back from Gosford so you could get these and now they are gone.

Damn Bastards, these are great coilovers !!!

I'll definately keep an eye out for them.

Sorry to hear it.

Parts like these would have individual serial numbers I would presume... unfortunately I doubt manofwood would have any idea what they would be?

Sorry to hear, it sucks big c*ck, do you think you were targetted or just unlucky?

Seriously it must have been a neighbour who watched you put them there or someone you know, they must have known they were there, was anyhting else stolen?

Obviously an inside job as whoever took them knew they were there, what they were worth and what car they could be used for.

Not like an FTO is an easy car to flog parts off for.

I'd be trying to link anyone you know and their mates to a Lancer, Mirage or FTO.
