Someone pinched my front number plate whilst we were sleeping last night. A cunning plan as Matts car is on the nature strip and mine is face down a steep driveway, so not only were they well hidden, but I think they were hoping Matts car would be used first and we wouldn't notice. However I had to go do a wedding at 7am so they were sprung quite early. Feckers. I now have to pay out $150 and spend the morning at Vic rds with Flynn on monday, otherwise I'll get fined :she: |

No and no Mel MP, they steal only one plate in the hope you don't notice, then they put the plate over their own, drive into a servo fill up then reverse out........ :crazy: all for a tank of fuel. My car got fingerprinted but nothing was there. |

... gits. Mind you, petrol is expensive :whistle: They don't even need to do that. Know someone who works at a servo and she says that they rarely follow up people who drive off. |

Well Bordy, you knew better than the nice policeman I saw at the station on Saturday am. It was $30 after an hour and a half at Vic rds. BUT I now have to call my insurance, city Link and the RACV to let them know the new rego.....what a ball ache for a tank of fuel! :she: I am looking to find where I can buy super strong screws to hold the plate on, either that or I'm using no more nails :crazy: Edited by Hevs, Dec 7 2009, 12:30:34 PM.

They just ripped the plate off. The rear one has 4 big chunky screws but the front on only had 2 skinny ones. So I have ordered some one way thick screws and they'll be 4 put in. I have also ordered some essendon plate covers which snap over the top so it makes the screws harder to get too....and essential item obviously :whistle: :thumbsup:

Cheeke little bastards........ I wouldn't bother with super strong screws just make the edges of it razor sharp so they leave a finger behind next time (easier for gettng prints off!), or anything sharp on it so they'll cut themselves, they won't try again after that. |
