where from?

stealers should have them ask for "metaldisc" for the de-lock kit they should know what you mean if its like my local stealer i have to show them what i want

[AlexKid]

This happened to me a few weeks ago.  They damaged part of my door handle too but after some filler and being sanded down, it'll be good as new after it's been sprayed.  The de-lock kit seems the most sensible option. 

Although they caused more damage to my car than yours. When they broke the lock they must have pulled the handle so hard it caused a small dent next to it in the door.  Not too bad though.  What can you do so there's no point being annoyed.

will be good when u get the delock kit fitted

[saalro]

Ahh cool I get you, a bit like saying you don't have to use all 5 wheel bolts when putting new alloy's on! 

I'd rather not risk it and just put the disc in 

Dont get me wrong i agree with you that you should fit it - gos without saying

I take it saalro is thinking - about removing it in the future?  

I'm liking the look of it a lot

What do you do if the remote locking doesn't work for some reason and let's say the boot was delocked also! And then to add to the problem when you delocked your doors you put this metal circle in to cover the only entrance in to the car lol. I guess a drill straight through the fake barrel and the the circle disk and then a screw driver to open it... And now i'm even more confused because i could swear when you open the door with a key it still activates remote locking and it's opened electrically!?

Hi,

Theres no need to de-lock the boot so it's all good (unless your silly and do it anyway)

Ah ok you know of a good bodyshop round here then? 
 I need a few bits doing.

How much money you got 

Lloyds refinisher's in Plymouth is supposed to be one of the best in the south west, also one of the most expensive.

I got mine done through a mate, got the bonnet notch welded and smoothed plus resprayed, grill sprayed and fitted, sideskirt repaired after the OEM jack went straight through it  roof resprayed, wing's blended in and mirror covers done... or and the rear bumper re painted! Got it all done for £450!!!  Was supposed to be £550 but he had problems with the front bumper and it wasn't (still isn't) perfect so knocked £100 off

Gonna wait until i decide on a FMIC which may require me butchering it a bit then get it in to have a top job on it!

TBH i'd just go by other peoples recommendations around your way mate. Don't have to pay silly money for a good job. Other than the bumper I was pleased with mine.
