Default ahh, the joys of owning a honda.

I just got back from a long camping trip and checked my messages. A week and a half ago, I brought the civic over to my buddy's shop so we could get started on my swap. The car was sitting outside, and apparently he came in one morning to find it sitting on jackstands with the wheels missing. They were in pretty rough shape too. :eh:

I guess I should be happy the car doesn't run, otherwise they probably would've jacked the whole thing. :hs: My buddy filed a police report for me, but they've got no clue. If anyone feels like scanning CL for 15" konig heliums... h:

Just sucks because I'm still kinda wrapping my head around the cost of the motor, and now new wheels and tires have to be addressed before I can even do the swap. The tires were pretty shot, so that's no real loss, but the wheels could've still cleaned up pretty well. Now I don't know whether I just want to get some steelies or cheap old integra wheels or something, or actually put up the money for something decent.
