It has been 1 week now since I discovered my car floating on plastic blocks and naked without shoes. The repair shop called today and said that they have the new wheels and will put them on. Then tomorrow they will lift the car and look for any further damage to the underside. My guess is that the side skirts and front bumper wing might need replacing. Lets hope all is well and it is fixed quickly.

Here is the look of the factory wheel. I have heard several stories of people having their stock rims stolen off of their Fit. Since I had lock nuts on before, they seem a bit pointless now. I guess all I can do is hope that my car has wheels when I get back from parking it anywhere.

Monday morning after a huge snowstorm, I found all my wheels were stolen and my car was on blocks. After calls to both the car repair shop and the insurance company I hope things are finally moving. As of Friday morning no wheels were ordered yet. (Whats the deal? I dont know).

It is now Saturday and 60 degrees. All the snow is melted. I have found almost all of my locknuts on the ground where the car once sat. If and when the factory replacement wheels come in to the repair shop, only then will they lift the car up and find out what sort of damage was done to the underbody. My assumption is that there is damage to at least the side skirt body kit and maybe the front as well. I saw the tow truck driver drop the cars brake rotor onto a chain while trying to secure it.

Yippy.

At least the tires on the stolen wheels were about ready to be replaced. they had over 32000 miles on them. I am going to stick with factory wheels and hope that those do not get stolen also.

Here is how it looked when we first bought it:

Our 2007 Honda Fit

Well, yesterday morning I woke to find my Honda Fit up on plastic 2 liter bottle carriers and all of my wheels stolen. Every lug nut was a wheel lock which obviously did not deter or prevent anything. Whoever did it must have a pretty crappy life to be stealing wheels. Karma will come around for them. There is no point getting angry about it.

Little do they know, that the tires on the rims were about ready to be replaced sometime this year. They had about 35000 miles on them. The rims themselves are about as cheap of an aftermarket wheel as you can buy. Sixteen inch flat black wheels.

After waiting 5.5 hours for the tow truck that claimed it would be there within an hour, I got to watch them pull the car up onto the flatbed. I thought maybe they would have a special technique for getting it up there without trashing the car. Their technique was just pull it up with a chain. Luckily the plastic blocks underneath the car worked as a sled and didnt allow too much sliding on the actual ground.

The plastic blocks did however rub across the side skirts of the body kit – which I assume will be repaired/replaced by the repair shop which is also covered by insurance. I watched the disc of the brakes bounce off of the chain on the flatbed truck. And who knows if the front of the car has any damage from resting on the ground.
