Question Used door laying around?

Well, this weekend I'm sitting waiting for a lady to back out of a parking spot ahead of me, and I heard the dreaded sound. A crunch followed by my truck lifting up on the pass. side. Yep, some A-hole hit my passenger door square and put a good foot and a half crease/dent in it. Any idea on cost? Paint may be able to be buffed out. Never have had body work done, so no idea if paintless dent removal will work. I'm going after his insurance.

If it has a crease it wont come out without body work...

If its a dent, find a local shop like Dent Wizard or Dent Pro, they can work wonders.....

This is how it always seems to work...... I've got a left door in Torrance you could have. I just can't figure out how to make it work on the right side!

I've had Dent Pros do some miracles for me. Try 'em first. It is a much happier process than paint.

Thanks guys. I'll swing by one of the DentPro places and see what they say.
Kerno, that would've been sweet. Torrance is in my back yard. But it doesn't suprise me it's the other side

Good thing is the ground effect wasn't touched, and it is the door and not the composite bed which I'm sure would've been more pricey to fix.

I've used David Gilman (310) 629-8224. He's a DentPro rep. who's done a good job for me.
