seems to me that that should be an insurance claim.
If your car was stolen, you should have insurance to cover the theft and damages done.
I'd have to say any body shop would replace the handle, and just fix that door skin with body work. It doesn't appear to be major damage to the point where a new skin is needed.

thanks for the idea..but yeah i bought the car off the dealer and havent got insurance for it yet then a few weeks later it got stolen.. crazy i know..how much you would think it cost to get that dent out and repaint? i already ordered door handles
That sucks man....that's a crappy situation to be in.
I don't know how expensive body shops are in your area...but that could be fixed around my area for less than $150.00. Paint and all.
For you, to know for sure, you'd have to take it some places and get some estimates. That's the only way to know for sure.

did you have a car before the integra? how did you buy the car with out insurance? i know dealerships here wont let you drive off the lot unless you have insurance. normal you insurance for your old car if you traded it in should cover that since you bought it from the dealership. if that was me just get a new door. its easier and prolly less expensive that fixing it
