    Do you leave your keys when fitting bodykit?

    Just wondering if you guys usually leave your keys with the painters when they are fitting a bodykit. Can't imagine why they'd need the keys apart from if they need to move the car.

    Thoughts?

    Well they cant keep calling you down to their workshop to move the car for them. I always leave my keys with people when they do work on it, and of course when I go to pick it up, I expect a few more kms on it.

    i left my car for 3 days. Just left the car key. As "TheSaint" mentioned, take down the kms. I had no probs with mine. You will get a shock of ur life when you return to your car. In a good way cos the kit will be on. Sexytime

    No. Just let them call you to yours and their annoyance everytime they need to move your car..

    I've had my car at the panel beaters for a week. They put on all of 0km..
