I have a scrape on my rear drivers door from a post I did not see when reversing out of the mechanics shop. It is about 20cm high and 30cm long, scrape area is slightly flattened by pole, no major ding or anything just a big scrape
Went to a local repair shop who told me I'd need a new door, the rear bar would have to come of and the drivers door would have to come off, and quoted me 1400 for a scrape about the size of an a4 bit of paper.
This seems a little excessive to me, is this reasonable and does anyone know a good place around Adelaide that does these kind of repairs? Or already having a compressor at home, would I be better buying a spray gun and paint mix, taking the skin off and pushing the door back into shape, and sanding and painting at home?
Thanks guys
