Re: 2001 SE: I have a crease in the driver's door which was banged
out by a Dent-Wiz place. It looks pretty good, but not as I'd like.

Can the outer metal layer be replaced or does the whole door need
replacing? What's the best (i.e., least expensive) way to get this
done (not by me)?

Thanks for any help.

Yes they sell door skins but the labor isn't cheap and many body men don't
know how to do it without destroying the edges and then bondo'ing them all
up. The cheapest way is used. Any of these will require painting and
probably blending to the panels on each side of the door to get a good
match. BTW the best isn't always the least expencive.:-)
