The post ran into me lmao, bit gutted but things like this happen....... Any know how much this will cost to fix?

Thanks people.

Full door

Top of the door

Bottom of the door

Oh dear sorry to see that.

Similar damage to a MK2 Oty in another thread.Same colour too.

How much it will cost depends on how good you want.

You will at least need a new door skin, and the sill will either be beaten and filled or replaced as a whole.

Approximately £300 to £400 at a decent bodyshop!!

The sill should be repaired NOT replaced :rolleyes:.

Really you'd want the front wing and rear door blended to ensure a decent colour match. Make sure you check the reputation of the bodyshop you use and insist on new mouldings and waistseals (a common shortcut!!!.

Somebody on here had some complete doors in black for not much. Might be cheaper to have one of those resprayed than a full skin.

Cheers

I reckon all of that is repairable panels: a bit of panel beating, filler, and paint. It will still be a few quid though: most of the side will need to be blended in.

what about dentmasters?

As far as I am aware Skoda do not do door skins, door only.

If that's a Mk1 I'd say there's a good chance of finding a complete door in a scrappy which could be easier than a repair.

Then it's just the sill to get sorted and that won't stand out as much if it's not 100% perfectly matched

I would certainly be getting the door (or skin if possible) replaced. I would hate to think of it being filled :eek:

I agree the sill should be fixable with filler, though.

Why?

If the worst is knocked out first, it'll be fine- filler is fine if used properly. A lot of it might push out.

A door skin will be expensive to fit, so if it won't repair, a new door may be the best option.

Because on which covers such a relatively large area, it will be near impossible to get it perfect and when the sun's shining on it any imperfections will stand out like a sore thumb.

Down to the skill of the bodyshop, I'd say. True, a crap repair will look bad over that area.

to get that done properly that will cost about £850 i reckon
