Default Swap bottom half of door panel on EM1..??

Ok so the top part where the handle is on my door panel is fine, but the bottom part has a huge *** scratch the entire length of the door panel..! I have another door panel that is perfect and want to swap the bottom part out of my bad one with the good one, but upon further inspection it seems as if I try to split the panel at those little plastic clips that holds the two pieces together, it will break it..?? Anyone ever done this before..?? I'll take pics if ur confused, but if ur confused u probably dont know the answer haha...

why not change the whole door if the other door is perfect.... seems cheaper/more hastle free just to paint the new one to match and skip all the bondo and welding

Buddy, did you even read his post? He is talking about the inside of the door. The door PANEL.

I don't think he did haha..! Both my doors are fine, just my drivers panel was fckeddd so i bought a new pair and the bottom part of the new one is scratched but the top was minty (which was effed up on my original so i sacrificed a panel with a crappy top for one with a minty top part and a scratched bottom, which looks way better cuz u can only see the scratch when the door is open)...

I'll post pics in a minute...

I read it.... nowhere does it say interior and For some reason I pictured the body line where door moulding mounts.
