Thumbs down Headlights Stolen in Coral Gables

at the University of Miami campus.

The Coral Gables Police came out to investigate/file a report and dusted the car for fingerprints:

The only damage to paintwork is on the hood. The left side is no big deal, but there's a very deep scratch (down to the metal) on the right. You can see it in the photo, it's filled with dust left by the investigator. It's bad, but it could have been much worse.

Maybe I should get a CF hood to replace it.

It looks like someone knew what they were doing. Be prepared to find those fellas on Ebay.

I guess it would be wise to mark those xenon headlights somewhere (hidden), so you can clearly identify them, once you get them back from Ebay. This could help to bust the whole gang behind the theft. I seriously think that I should do that with my TT's headlights. In Germany Turbo-xenons are really rare on Ebay.

You can get the alarm for the headlights installed. It can be tied into the factory car alarm and goes off when they touch the car around the headlights.

Does The Collection (or Sonic Boom) sell the alarm for the headlights?

Also, if anyone has had experience with both Countach and Stuttgart, is it worth taking my car to Pompano instead? Does Stuttgart do better work?

Thanks.

I want an alarm system like James Bond had in For Your Eyes Only. Guy tries to break into the car, car explodes.

It'd be worth it.
