New door skin or new door
My passenger door has dents that are un-pullable. Has anyone ever had a door reskinned? What all is involved in that? Or would it be cheaper just to buy a used door off of a wrecked car and bolt it on? Thanks

Labor on skinning a door maybe somewhere around 6 hours. While buying a used shell & painting & reinstalling everything could be cheaper.
Think the skin itself will be a few hundred, labor hours & paint.

Reskinning will have the seals looking like crap vs. the factory caulking. I've elected BOTH times to have the door replaced. Yes, it costs more, but it looks like it has never been repaired/fixed.
