a few months ago i came out of work to find someone had helped themselves to my brand new wind deflectors, was a bit annoyed to say the least. Came out of work to find TWO of my dice valve caps had been lifted today just waiting to see my ats cups go walkies some day and find the sport sitting on blocks. anyone else having these problems starting to get a bit fed up with people feeling they can just help themselves.

Sounds like they did you a favour tbh 
On the bright side, could be a lot worse.
Least you haven't had any damage of a real value, they could have quite easily wacked a key down the side and caused you a hell of a lot of trouble.
I know that's not the point but hey, society sucks.

Put locking wheels nuts on your alloys, if you're still worried about them taking all 4 wheels even though they have locking wheel nuts on, put 2 locking wheel nuts per wheel, that would take some getting off.

Might sound daft, is the car dodgy or wanted by anyone who was after the last owner?

Bugger about the wind deflectors, that's why i don't bother with fancy valve caps, becuase you just get chavs/little kids pinching them for their bikes. Can you not park your car anywhere nere CCTV, or try getting CCTV installed if your that worried mate.
