Default Your signature is a shopping list for thieves

The last few weeks I've seen people posting saying they got jacked for their wheels or even the whole car. I've noticed that there are alot more people using there sig to list the parts they have installed on their cars. Did anyone ever think that that list, your profile, and stuff you posted in the past can be easily put together and get jacked. Guys might want to look for supplemental insurance coverage for you aftermarket parts.

LOL...Just know what you are getting into. OEM parts cost more than some of the aftermarket mods. For example a Nismo style V2 bumper may go for $250 but an OEM bumper is $300. Look at prices for OEM wheels vs your aftermarket. Food for thought.
