How much would it cost to dehandle my rear doors?

thats not too bad if that includes everything (welding, filling, smoothing, spraying etc). that the going rate at any bodyshop?

Bit off topic but i paid around 150 a door to have the strips taken off and smoothed painted etc. so would say 80-100 but then u need the solenoid fitted as well!!

Ive just paid £220 for both doors to be de-locked, that includes removing all the mechanism inside and welding plates behind the exisiting holes and blending the colour into the rear quarters.

Thats well steep!!

I paid £205 for both doors de-locked, bonnet repaired and de-badged, colour coded grill and bump-strips

where ?

and was it a good job ?

 

[Matt16v]

Yeah, not bad at all, I had a dent on the bonnet from pranging some one so went to get a quote on that and though fcuk it Ill have some more done!

Was a little place in Upminster. Just two blokes there, one a mechanic and the other a bodywork spcecialist. Think their names are Robbie and Bruce. Been in the trade for years.

He had to plastisise the strips and grill to colour them, I had a black car any way so it was ok. I wouldnt say phase 1 strips and grills are worth colouring though.

Bought some phase 2 strips that are body coloured now and they look alot better.
