Somebody Stole All My Valve Stem Covers

Took longer than i expected for somone to Steal all of my BMW logo Valve stem covers. In a way it's funny. But it's also sad.

OMG!! You had them for just a few months. I thought the dealer made them extra tight so it would be extremely hard to remove????

Nope, I see them going up on eBay any minute now!

I read that they were easy targets of theft, so I told my dad not to get them.
