Those guys are complete retards... I can't believe they can see epic fail when its painfully obvious. Yea there is 2 sides of the story.. please observe:

Side 1:
This douche bag stole my headlights...

Side 2:
Yea I stole his headlights...

End of story.

Phreak has put more effort into this than the OP.
Time to let the him take over.

OP, I know you're busy with school and work but if I lost $600 bux and a set of head lights... I'mma make time off in getting it back especially when you have the grunt work cut out for you thanks to my350z members.
