I could do you one and supply it to you in primer ready to be painted to match your car if you like. Though they are reletively simple to make if you are handy with a bit of filler and things...

I'll have to see if we have a boot lock knocking about. If not then I'll pop to the scrappy to get one and make it. Probably be about £30 in primer and a few more quid in colour... No idea, i'm just guessing at the moment so I'll let you know tomorrow... Trouble is if we sell it in colour then the paint might not be a 100% colour match, but if you aren't too worried about that then we can do it...

well if you's painted it and i fitted it would it not match up pretty decent after a good polish? (the whole car that is)

Would probably be an alright match. It's just that when you paint a new part on the car you mix the paint according to the ammount that the existing paint on the car has faded/gone dull/contaminated e.t.c... so you have to get the exact right shade for a perfect match...
