Default new doors or have bodyshop fix it?

Both of my doors are shot full of dents, with one really noticeable slash kinda dent very deep and one huge rounded dent looks kindad pushed in on the driver side, the whole thing it's about the size of my hand, plus alot of tiny ones all over. My question is would it be better if I got some good cond used doors or have the body shop repair my original? I really don't want them to put bond all over my doors, I'm having the whole car painted and I also don't want them to go nuts charging me for al those dents.

mine's kinda got the same... nothing big or that noticeable really, but if you look at it from a certain angle, you can see tiny little dents all over it from careless old people parking next to me.

Somone once suggested having my door "reskinned." I'm not really sure what's involved with that or how much it would cost. Anyone have any input?

If you brought it to a body shop they'd just bondo the hell out of it...
