Default 2000 Honda Civic DX Help

Earlier this morning I swerved to not hit a deer and lost control and hit a guard rail. I'm trying to fix the damage, and I definitely need to get a new rear quarter panel (I think that's what it's called), a new right rear door, a new right mirror, and possibly a new front passenger door. Does anyone know how to remove these panels for when I go to a pull-a-part? I don't know a whole lot about cars, but my dad knows a ton, I'm just trying to be helpful as it was my fault and it was a stupid mistake. If anyone can provide insight or blueprints or anything to help me understand more please let me know. Thank you guys!

You can see the misshaping that took place due to the crash in this photo.

Front right, doesn't really show a whole lot other than that the mirror is gone. also shows that the car is now misshaped.

Shows scratches and a little bit of the dents. Also shows mirror is gone but that was pretty obvious.

Photo right after it happened, you can see the extent of the damage to the right rear quarter panel. You can see the scratches across the door as well.

Hate to be the bringer of bad news, but the rear quarter panel is a cut out and weld in job, not just a simple unbolt/bolt job. The doors and mirrors are bolt jobs but there may possibly be structural damage/tweaks that will need to be addressed for stock parts to bolt up and align properly.

The service manual shows how things are attached. If you plan on keeping the car & working on it it's worth getting aholda one. Maybe Haynes manual at auto parts store but not as detailed. Sorry about yr car but the deer could a been more damage...

You have only 2 options for the rear quarter panel. Bondo or PDR (paintless dent repair).
