Default Car broken into | need custom shop info

Fellas,

I need info on a shop that can fix my doors. Let me give you the story first:

I parked my car at cta train station at midway, I know I'm stupid but whatever i did it. I left it in the first spot right by the entry so people could see it as they went in and out of parking lot. came back 3 hours later at 4pm from downtown and wala, my car door locks got drilled out! I dont think anything was stolen, they might of gotten spooked.

Anyways, I'm looking to see if somebody can fix my doors but im thinking of not even adding the actual key locks anymore. I want to add the locking mechanism and just fill in the holes. has anybody done this? if not then i'll just replace the locks.

Thanks Ls1tech, sorry to have abandoned you my friend LOL.

MArio sorry to hear that!

Remember your insurance shouldn't go against you either cause remember its more like vandalizm, and you should be able to get it fixed the way you want it!

Hope you get your car fixed soon!

Sucks Mario, Sorry to hear.

Shave those bitches off and just use the hatch as an emergency entrance.

I'll send you a PM of a guy. Deleting the locks isnt a bad idea - just leave the one in the trunk. Your door handles should stay in my opinion. Door poppers suck...
