If it's just a door, get you a door from a junkyard and be done with it. Hell they'd be paying for it if they hit me though.

Do me a favor. The person you heard that from....kick them in the mouth for me. Get a new door roughly 1-200 dollars and then get it color matched for another 1-200 dollars and be done with it. And the family member who hit you...kick them in the mouth for me too.

i would assume the del sols doors are all the same as the body style didnt change (besides the front end) or the GEN of it through out the years it was produced.

I still don't understand why YOU'RE paying...I think you're not giving us the whole story and H-T doesn't like fibbers or people that hide the truth. So what REALLY happened?
