Drivers Door Price

I'm trying to determine how much an NB drivers door would cost, second hand in excellent condition, as my drivers door just lost a fight with the garage wall (long story dont ask!).

Ironically i just finished spraying some damage on it today which wasn't fixed properly last time someone hit into it, that Murphy bloke is a real bastard BTW. :frown:

I dont see any advertised on mx5mania, new or otherwise.

If anyone has one laying around in the Sydney area for sale let us know ASAP.

When i was at Mania on last friday, i did notice at least 10 doors laying around. May not be for sale, but they could sort something out.

Cheers mate, I will give em a ring, i reckon they would be happier having 9 doors and some cash, i dare say they would be for sale.

Keep us posted with how it went! sorta stuck with the same problem but it was a hit and run.

Well its near $1200 bucks damage and thats not even with a new door!

I was hoping to keep this seperate from insurance but its too much to not make the claim, the only positive is i can get a rust spot and my side mirror sprayed at the same time at my own cost which i was putting off.

I also have clear coat failure on my bonnet and front bar but there is nothing they can do for them bar total respray, which just isnt going to happen right now.

Not too happy with myself right now. :frown:

used door should not cost much more than 300, though getting one in the right colour is practically impossible so once you account for respray and blending of surrounding panels costs rise
