Hi,
does anyone know where I could get a door for a 97. I have a small scratch and a couple dents and the damn body shop wants almost $2000 to fix. If anyone has replaced a door please give me some advice, I'm not too sure if this is possible and will cost only a couple hundred.
Thanks,
Paul

It seems rather high, but it depends on how severe and where those "couple of dents" are.

Get a second opinion.

try junkyards...the one i went to had this huge huge row of doors that looked like they were in almost perfect condition. that's where i'd check...goodluck

Sounds like they are trying to scam you...
If the dents are small like door dings, a painting and dent removal shouldn't run much beyond $500 dollars.


If they are huge dents, then maybe they can't fix it so if you really do need a new door, $1900 sounds about right.

Thanks GTR. However, they dont have the rear right door which I need. The dent isn't too small but its not huge. I scratched it when pulling out of covered parking. Also what is a door skin and will it fix my problem cause it's only $60 which would be great. Also to the person that said they saw some on the junk yard, can you please tell me where this was located, if I can't find it here I will call them and maybe they can ship it.
Thanks,

Any one know if installing the skin is complicated or how much a body shop would charge? I really want to get this scratch fixed and sont want to pay 1900. I have found a local body shop that will do it for $650 but they seem a little crappy, if I can't find a way around this I guess I will have to go with them.
Thanks,
