    Car was vandalized... need some help?

    Hey everyone, a little bit of history... when I was 18 I spend my life savings on a 1994 Mitsubishi 3000 GT SL. My family thought I was crazy, my friends thought I was crazy, but I have never looked back on my decision.

    Now I am 22, into my first week of law school, broke as can be and someone decided to vandalize my car while I was in class. And get this, there are no cameras. Apparently there is not enough crime in VA to need them... But I could use anyone's help/advice on finding a new driver side mirror. Whoever took mine left the actual frame untouched, they just "popped out" the reflective surface and the piece that is attached to it (I have no idea what it is called, but it connects to the frame to make it pivotable).

    Thanks for your time and consideration and I hope my post didn't offend anyone else's knowledge of the car.

    My advice is to upgrade to a TT because they have way better mirrors.

    Just be happy its just a mirror ... lol

    Recently my (now ex) g/f's, ex b/f decided he wanted to hurt me some how.

    1. He decided the slash my brand new rear tires on my 3kt.

    A few days later...

    2. He decided to key the entire drivers side of my car... even the rear quarter that was JUST painted 2 weeks before.

    A week later....

    3. He decided to snap off the Lo-Customs antenna i had on it... just snapped the mast right off.

    Sigh.. my poor baby.. i dont understand why people have to mess with peoples property.

    You know who it is, but you don't pursue him? Doesn't sound like he's going to stop on his own.

    Sorry to hear about your car, man.

    it happens because they haven't ever had a gun shoved in their face by an irate owner.

    for what it's worth, if you're repainting the car, green is NOT a color to keep it. trust me.

    p.s.

    i like the hood idea (i've seen that photochop before). if you do pull it off, let us know.
