Default crack head keeps stealing the top of my snorkel!

so it happens sunday, was at my girlfriends dads body shop(which is in a decent area), we see this guy all screwed up on drugs banging on the window trying to break it, i tell her to sit tight and i call the police, he walks away, then we hear a bang and she yells nick that guy just hit your jeep and took your snorkel (pre filter top) , so i run out try to find him and when he finally surfaces the police come hes to incapacitated to talk and covered in puke, the police take a report arrest him and thats that, luckily no rain this week here, so that night i ordered another (ram air this time cant just order a prefilter) from quadratec, they get it to me by yesterday, so i put it on extra tight, back at her body shop yesterday after work, we come out about 930 to go home, gone again.....had to order another ram air. (75$ a pop with tax and shipping)

just frustrated and wanted to share that i wish people would keep there hands off my jeep!

yeah, you should teach him a lesson ..
you could glue it on, but then you can turn it around in case of really heavy rain..

Pepper spray him and kick him in the groin several times, you were in fear of your life. Tell the cops that if you do catch him.

Fabricate a metal version of the ram air and connect it to the battery. If he touches it he will be shocked

You can also get a radio wave proximity sensor, so if anyone comes near your JK your alarm will chirp.

I personally would hide out and wait for him to show up again and beat the living shit out of him and shove the ram air up his ass.

Rig it with a gun. Tie a string around the trigger so when he pulls it off, the string pulls the trigger and the a$$hole shoots himself. F* that, some people deserve to die!!!!
