Doesn't surprise me. Homestead is straight hood.

Washington is bad with car break-ins. When I take my Z there, it's always in the day time where I can find an up front spot or valet lets me park it myself in a viewable lot. Never park on those side streets or in the back...

Wow you guys are great. Thanks for all the info on local resources! I do have insurance though so I'm letting the body shop and insurance company take care of everything. 1590 bucks was the initial estimate...

We were actually hitting up NOx and Bronx Bar. Neither place was worth the trouble... And of course, this was late late at night. I was away from it from 1:15 to 2:05AM. Really, I didn't even want to go. Only place on Washington that interests me is Corkscrew and they've got their own well lit parking lot with guards walking around. Screw the rest of that area.

SO if all goes to plan, I'll be rolling around good as new by the end of the week. I didn't get a chance to snap any pictures. Insurance lady took some though... I'll see if she'll email them to me. (Just for posterity... lol)

Again, you guys rock! Hopefully I'll run into some of you Houston Zers.

Another quick question: What's a good place in Houston to get alarm work done?

Thanks.
what about all the "priceless audio equipment" you had in there that got stolen, and all your "rare interior parts?"

Post in your Regional forum... the locals can tell you where to go.

A .40 seems to do pretty well for me. More punch than the .22 and ammo is cheaper than the .45
