How much do a set of rear pads cost fitted via Honda? Think I need to invest.

Some knobjockey tried to steal the Honda logo from the driver's side front wing. The didn't even manage to get it off, but left some nice screwdriver marks along the top

Luckily the damage appears to be in a quite small area and should be sorted out with some touch up paint...

What is the world coming to ?

Maybe Honda is becoming a 'must-have' badge

Been noticing a weird whining noise when I turn sharp left or right.
From the limited description, sounds more like it could be the diff.

Get them to take a look at that at the same time.

update..

I went to my normal dealer yesterday. The problem was the inner brake pad which had worn down to the little metal plate which is there purposefully for this reason-to tell you your brakes are worn. They had checked the disks and said they are absolutely fine. The guy actually said you could do another 1000 miles on them before any possible damage to the discs.

Toyal cost 65 quid for new rear pads (inc vat & labour). They even gave me a discount because they originally told me at the service there were circa 3K left and I had only done 1.5K miles

I am feckin well mad The other dealer attempted to charge me 250 sovs

The dealer in question is Arnold Clark-Chester Road, Old Trafford. Twats

I have to go down to them today to pick up my H badge. Tempted to stick it right up where the sun don't shine.

Anyone any suggestions if this can go any further, or should I just take it as a learning experience?
