Not happy

You didn't ruin the weekend with your comments mate.

It's just a shame that this has happened, I hope we manage to find the culprit!

It was the drivers side 2 that they took.

Yes if we have to buy 4 then that would be an idea. Sorry to hear that you've suffered the same fate. My centres were black with the chrome nut.
I'm struggling to find anywhere that supplies them at the moment though, so if you come across any then let me know. I will do the same.

Just to add a bit more encouragement to Ansar's comments above… I've emailed the course events manager to see about getting some CCTV footage downloaded.
If I can get it I WILL be reviewing very carefully. 

I do this for a living on very serious matters and have the patience, time and drive to root out people who steal from our club members. 

Do yourself a favour, post the caps to Ansar BEFORE the CCTV lands on my doormat and we'll say no more. If I find out who you are after I've looked at the footage, we'll deal with it another way. 

Fair???

Firstly I hope these people read this thread, realise what they have done and grow a conscience.. Its a shame these are so difficult to get hold of or I am sure there would be plenty of people on here come foreward and help you out replacing them.. I wish I had some I could send you.. It turns my stomache to think of people looking at our cars with a view to what they can remove and take with them.. It really beggars belief.. So I send you my sympathy and also bump this back up to the top.. I don't want to see this thread fade away ang get forgotten…. Not at least until Skipper1 has shown us all a close up photo of his "Dimple ring!"…  :$

Macca , gutted to hear that this happened, I've heard of this happening at other shows; but being my first AGM also, I got the overall feeling that the club is like a large family and this sort of thing wouldn't happen.

From other comments/reaction above this seems to be a very isolated incident and one that certainly has annoyed the committee and members.

Hoping the solidarity is some comfort that we are all on the same page regarding this behaviour. Dano - get the CCTV tapes reviewed and nail them.
