Gutted, only had the car since may and some bastard has stolen my rear cover where the towing eye screws in!!
Makes the car look messy at the moment
Not the end of the world I know, but who steals these?
Does anyone know how much this is going to cost me? Also, will I have to get the new one sprayed or will they come ready to pop on?

I hate thieves! What a bummer. If I remember correctly, when I had to have mine replaced, I think the covers are around $600 (U.S.) and they don't come painted.

Maybe they were going to tow it onto a flatbed but got disturbed.
Park it somewhere safe just in case they come back.

They come painted and i would imagine they aren't very expensive. On the day i was to pick up the car, mine was missing so they ordered a new one for me and got it before i got there. When i brought the car home, i found it in the secret compartment.

I was talking about the whole bumper cover, I guess didn't read the original message thoroughly the first time. I would imagine that the little round cover is substantially less than the amount I quoted. I still hate thieves, though!

I had mine stolen soon after I picked up the car too. I figure that if someone is going to steal some part of or damage my car, this is by far the best result I could have hoped for.

Thank your lucky stars.

They needed it to cover the big ass hole in the back of their head where the mush for brains all drained out. I HATE thieves, too.
