Sweet as! Even though I hate Skylines, I don't like hearing about someone's wheels getting knocked off.

I can't believe how much of this I read on sunday. They ended up boxing him in with the integra, and the cops finally showed up and arrested him.

The rest of the pages are pretty much just more photochops, shout-outs and then interesting arguments with the guy's girlfriend and then her mother. A few threats were thrown around, legal action, a public smear campaign, and that's about it.

Word of advice- just read the first page, watch the video of the arrest and news clips, then check out the auctions on ebay... the hat is going for over $200.

Thanks Alex. Did the guy get his GTR back? Do you have a link to the video/news clips?

I hope that the claw guy is not getting that $200?

He did end up getting it back, the thief's hat and jacket were inside the car, so the owner has claimed them and put them on ebay.

This happened actually where I live, it was hilarious to read about as stuff went down.


People on the same site also caught a guy that hit/run another member within a few hours. Someone snapped photos and the guy was located.

All in all, it's quite a car community!
