Unhappy Door is F'd up

Not sure why i am posting this..i am just in a pissy mood.

The Trans am i just bought has a sagging door, driver side.

Took a closer look and found out its all cracked..really bad. Will get the body shop to look at it tomorrow hopefully.

ARRGGHHHHHH

Bro dont pay 1200 dollars for a door shell. I bought a complete 40k mile door, already painted arctic white, with power window and mirror, for 50 bucks. Look around.

Whatever you do.... DONT LET THEM FIX IT!!! Get a new door. They're plentiful since they're so durable, fit ten years worth of cars, and most of the totalled cars they come from are n front end collisions and have good doors.
The repaired SMC in the hinge area is not going to last.
