So, I just walked out to my garage to find my door lying om the ground with along with all my stuff gone through

THEY TOOK MY POWDER COATING STUFF, MY RIMS AND MY HEADERS!!!!

The coating stuff is not a big deal, but my rims are.

CaFords please keep a look out for my rims. They are 95 Cobra R's. On inside of each rim I have my CaFords name along with my drivers license number engraved into the rim. So if you go to buy some rims. Please check to see if they are mine!

Any info leading to my stuff getting recovered I will offer you 500$ in free powder coating!! THAT INCLUDES RIMS WHEN I FINISH MY BUILD.

Thanks CaFords!!

that sucks arse...
something you may want to consider when you upgrade your garage motors is to get one that has smart phone control, monitoring and notification on when the door is opened and closed.
have one at my house and also cameras setup so i can see what the f is going on in there when i aint home.

I just seen a news report on garage break ins. They most likely pulled the emergency hatch or whatever with an "equipment" and manually opened the garage without making much noise at all. I'll find the report video and it tells you how to prevent this from happening.

I hope you find your rims bro, make sure if you see any rims that are identical to yours go and see them and check where you marked the rims. Good luck.

Take it as a lesson learned. More than likely you will find your rims with the DL grinded off or someone will find the dummy selling em. Put up cameras and an alarm maybe even a dog or two. Oh and dont have people come to your house unless you know nobody will try that shit. I have two dogs in my yard with the gate closed at all times.

First off, sucks to hear what happened to you.
Second, what color are the wheels, and what length and brand are the headers?
I'll keep checking C list periodically.

I don't want to be rude so I'm going to try and respond to everyone in one bit post. lol

I mad the police report last night, of course. The cop said he would do his best, but W/O proof he said I wont be able to prove anything wrong. I then explained how I have my DL number graved into each rim. Best response I have heard, "No shit. You my friend are a smart mother fucker." hahah The cop was nice and took my case very personal. I wish all cops were like him. He too was robbed last year. They took over 15K in stuff.

The job I believe was a spur of the moment type of hit because I walked outside to check on my car, brought my two pitbulls inside for like 10 minutes and they went back outside. So within 10 minutes all this went down. In the crime world ten minutes is a long time. They had to had done it during the ten minutes of my pitbulls being inside because if not they would of been bitten and they were would been raising heck!!
They broke down my garage door causing about 3k dollars in damage.
I do not bring my customers to my house for that reason. I don't want to think that my customers were the ones who robbed me. Out of site out of mind! lol
I don't keep customers parts in my garage I keep them in my house for that reason. So, I know they are safe because someone is always home.

Thank you everyone for keeping a look out for me and spreading the word. I hoping I get my rims back at least..

My headers were JBA. My rims looked brand new. They were chrome 5 lug 17x9 and 10.5. No curb rash or scratches with 315's M/T drag radials in the rear and hankook 275's in the front.

Thanks brother,

Kinda... I was in the process of building a bigger oven to coat rims. I talked to a few people and that are allowing me to experiment with their rims. This sets me back a few.
