Why pay for that.. there are plenty of cars being parted out on here/ebay/junk yards. I bet you could easily get one for sub $100.

What are you going to complain about? Their prices too high? Bend it over, take it dry, and learn

Was this the actual door panel or inside the door frame?

Thats just insane to pay that much for a door panel. You could of bought enough used door panels to last you the life of the car and then some for that money. You should of just bought some LT1 TA door panels. The TA door panels i have in my car are out of a 93 TA and they don't have any cracks. Keep in mind that mine are installed in a Camaro and since they're in a Camaro you can't use all four screws to hold them you can only get 2 screws in them securely.
