heads would have rolled if i had fella,know what ya sayin but u shouldnt have 2 sell your car just for reasons such as worried about it being broken into but i see were your coming from its sumone local as i bought a new head unit at weekend and i have been driving about with windows down music on etc,makes me sick how you carnt have anything with out some smack rat wanting to break into your car

Yea i always Turn my music down when i drive onto my estate for this reason alone, I opened my blinds about 5:30am the other day to see 2 chavs/smackheads Stood outside my driveway looking very dodgy and quickly scarpered when they noticed me, I'm used to people stopping & looking at my car as it is Quite different but modified Car's/Ones with Loud stereo's such as yours are just Adverts for Car thieves 
For now i would just bend your door back in but you need a new one ASAP because they go very weak once they have been bent back, a 10 year old would probably be able to get in your car now

Doubtfull pal, mostly because your car looks wet and also because they dont usually print cars unless it is something more serious and they wont view this serious enough i dont think, but your right wait and see what they say.
Mght not be waiting long for them to come out though as it's early hours and they wont have much to do

Just leave it as it is now so the police see the damage ect, i Very much doubt anyone will break into your car in the meantime especially now your awake, then just bend it back after they have filed their report ect, Dont see them catching anyone unfortunatly unless your neighbours have camera's

Well I Hope your lucky enough to catch the c*nts and give them a slap.
Breakfast time for me now though, I would suggest Leaving your Downstairs lights on like i do every night now though as it's not uncommon for thieves to come back and target your car till they get what they want unfortunatly.

Dude 
Had my cars broken into twice now by some scummy smack heads. Got away with nothing though! Both times at are local hospital where i'm parked most nights. Nothing i can do about it really and i'd rather my car get broken into than get stabed or something waiting for a bus.
Now park in the staff car park where it's been alright. Don't seem to get clammed these day

Open the Door put your foot at the base of the pillar (where the crease is but on the inside) then pull the top corner in towards you, bend it a bit further in than it would usually sit or it reflex bends back out

 Worst feeling in the world mate 
I've had 2 cars broke into like this, and saw them doing it both times.
On the up-side, a new door shouldnt cost much more than £20-30 if you can find one in the right colour

I managed to get hers back semi-ok. Like you say, it's hardly noticable, but there's always a crease there 
You could probably source a door the same colour without glass, cards, etc. for £30.
