Yea all honda doors are really thin metal because almost all that i see are like that. But would paintless dent repair be able to fix that up or do I need new doors?

LOL thats funny how you explained, cuz it's true haha. It sucks at the same time to though. I'm rebuilding a hatch right now and I have to get the passenger fixed from a fender bender (which isn't bad) and I need to get all the little waves out of the rest of the car.

I was going to just get new doors but since i'm getting totally new paint and the rear quarter need to be fixed, I'm just going to have the body shop fix it all. I'm also goign to have a few little things shaved.

My friends think I should try it fix it myself i.e. waves in the door, bent body, and paint but I don't think its a good idea, especially if I've never had to do body work or paint before and I'm on tight schedule.

get a good paint job next time and next time you wont have monster waves. basically body work wasnt done correctly.

what part is shaved? just the holes for the side molding clips or the whole side molding to make if flush? I just want the holes where the clips are, shaved. Plus, what model car do u have? I'm assuming EF from your name, I am doing this to an EG.

the guy i bought the car from shaved the doors smooth, and then molded the side skirts in. so replacing the doors is not really an option
