Got to my car thismorning to find that two of my valve caps were stolen last night, i know theyre only valve caps, but the point is i park in a comunal car park where only residants and visitors park! so its someone that shares the car park with me, most of them are elderly and the rest dont drive, but recently the girl that lives above me, has started seeing a lad with a 318 with wheels and loud exhaust! im thinking it was him becuase the other night they were at it, and i could hear the banging  so i thumped the roof a few times then they stopped! Maybe ive pissed them off so they have stole my valve caps what do you think? am i jumping to conclusions? how can i go about finding out, becuase im not happy with someone toucjing my property!
also where can i get metal valve caps from? im not willing to pay halfrauds for them either

i dont think it would have been kids becuase, they have no access to the car park! and the car park is completely hidden,  if it was the 318 chap, surely h wouldnt be silly enough to put them on his car??

plastic ones are the way forwards
No one bothers nicking them and they dont seize themselves on 
Also think of the weight saving

Plastic FTW, and if you ever lose one, just go to an air pump, there's usually a few dotted around

Like Ryan said, will be kids for the bike, especially if only two were gone.
