[s-cars] Bodywork Needed

[David Kase]

I would opt for a used door of the same color.  It might take a while to 
find one but it is well worth the wait in my opinion.  The door will 
likely need to be repainted but at least all the nooks and crannies 
(plus the area under the door panel) will not show another color.  This 
is important if striving for the "perfect car".

Heck I even waited months to find a /sliver /B4 hood for the conversion 
of my e//S2 as I didn't want any other colors showing through. 

The body work could be done to fix it but it better be a damn good shop 
and damn good shops charge accordingly.

My solicited 2 cents,
Dave Kase
