Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Alright, I'm a dumbass and I parked at the same airport where this heinous crime previously occured. Needless to say, that was the last trip the p-car will be making to the airport. Some people just have no respect of other peoples stuff If anyone can point me in the direction of some wheel caps that lock in some manner I'd really appreicate it.

POST 2Original post

That just sucks. sorry to hear it. http://www.boothedesign.com/centercaps.html

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the sympathy and the link.

POST 4Original post

surely they have surveillance cameras there? Maybe recorded a plate number.....

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I filed a complaint with the parking garage and, to my surprise, they indicated that they would likely pay to have them replaced. I'm still skeptical though. The surveillance camera is a good idea. Worth checking out anyway.

POST 6Original post

Maybe the valet's in the garge or a garage attendant??? I am willing to bet you are not the only one.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I bet you're right. When I was filling out the incident report I suggested that it was an inside job. I can't imagine that a random thief would have hit my car twice but the guy who drives around the garage in his golf cart, hmmmm....

POST 8Original post

I'm sorry, i'll give them back now. J/K.. hope you get some restitution out of this.

POST 9Original post

I would tell them you has some serious high end caps that cost some serious money instead of the $200 porsche ones and let them know you are going to file a police report as well. Then see if they challenge you. If they do, what is their basis? Maybe they call your bluff with your own caps! But....if they don't, then you were compensated for both sets!!!

POST 10Original post

Some years ago one of the local Boxster guys caught the parking lot security guy stealing his crested valve stem caps.

POST 11Original post

Bummer. Its like you can't leave your car anywhere anymore. How much are a new set of caps? Will your insurance cover it?

POST 12Original post

IAH or Hobby? I would just get some plain black caps, they're only about $60 a set vs. $200 for the colored plastic crests. Either that or the Boothe caps if you want a quality centercap.

POST 13Original post

The Boothe caps can't be removed unless you take the wheel off first. Top notch quality too. Ask for rennlist discount.

POST 15Original post

There is NO rennlist discount on the Boothe caps. I will say though that there are excellent quality and really blow away the factory caps. Not to mention they are anti-theft (bolts on the inside of the rim).

POST 16 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

DJ996 - It was Hobby. I think I'm going to get the Boothe caps to prevent future theft. Disappointing to hear there is no rennlist discount.

Tim...Very disappointing. I tried to get them through Jenn but Ralph just kept ignoring her and giving excuse after excuse adn that went on for several months. I just don't think Ralph could honor those prices from the past b/c he would be losing money at that point. In the end I called Ralph directly and had them inside of 2 days! Well worth the cost of the caps. Ralph is extremely great to do business with and customer service is top notch.
