is it possible to just replace metal outter panel?

cause theres a dent in mine, and the junk yards are selling entire doors for 300 bucks. everything works, i just need that outter side replaced ...

and if it is possible, is there any online parts site besides east providence mitsubishi that sells it? cause apparently, east providence is not responding to emails and doesnt seem to be updating.

i dont trust it ...

Its all one piece. Just swap your inside door panels, glass and regulator, mirrors, etc if the new one is not an exact match.

 

but isnt it possible for a body shop to fix that somehow? i mean, i dunno much about bodyworks, but they can do lots of things cant they?

 

yeah, well i got a quote and the price out of pocket is $1600.

i thought it would be cheaper just for the panel. looked like a few screws and bolts ...

 

Look at the bends in the door, thats alot of work to do.

Yea man, changing a doors not bad.
Just lining it up right with the striker can be a bitch.

 

yea, i worked in a body shop for about two years... and changing the door skin is a pretty tough job, i would suggest just getting a new door and swapping all the stuff into it from the old door, it's much easier... swapping a skin requires cutting, welding, glueing, and repainting and everything... just swap it, it'll save time and money, trust me

 

no no no, not like swapping the skin.. what i meant is, ive seen some body shop guys take out like dents in fenders and stuff, with a clear stake, and some suction stuff and leave the ride like new, but i guess thats just easier work.... that or either the guys in here have WAY too much experience lol

 

you are better off just gettinga new door... the price of fixing and painting the door will be a lot more than 300 bucks. you can also check ebay to see if they have any cheaper on there. they do sell carbon fiber doors but they are very very expensive and also you would need a roll cage installed for safety.

 

I swear the outer metal is removable? Thats how GT Fabrications makes their CF doors. Its just the outside sheet that has been replaced. Correct me if im wrong... please
