Do u think that the door is repairable?

Ouch! Thats harsh!

How bad the damage is internally? They may be able to replace just the door skin. My clio was hit by a wheel falling off the back of a truck, and was really badly dented and creased. In the end they just changed the doorskin and resprayed it. I think it cost about

Thank u..

My rear door is lightly dented.. but the front one is really badly damaged.. It doesnt open anymore and its very deep... Im goin through the Insurance ya.. but here insurance companies are really bad so im probably gonna see how much it costs to fix at some garage i know and take my money from the insurance company..one garage told me that the door dorsnt have to be replaced..

Ooh, hadn't realised you were in Dubai. :)

Hopefully if the rear door isn't creased, they may be able to pull the dent out, but that may not be easy. If the garage reckons the door doesn't need replacing, they may just replace the door skin. Do they have any idea if there is any other damage inside the door? It does sound quite severe if you aren't able to open it!

Its hard to tell how bad the damage to the back door is. That might be salvageable and just need a total smooth down and respray. However the front need door will need a new skin, and that might be quite a bit of labour - new door glass obviously too ....... :o (like you didn't know that already.... :doh: )

LOL.. Thanx everybody... The rear door is defenatly repairable and will look like new without replacing.. But the front one is for sure to be replaced.. the insurance company i deal with seems to be great.. I'll take the car there tomorrow morning and they'll check the damage...

Without the tint on the front window you would have been showered in glass ....now theres an excuse to get it done :rolleyes:

I hope your experience with the Police was a reasonable one... I was in Abu Dhabi for 20 months but luckily avoided any problems...

It wasnt really a bad one.. the police man was very nice.. It was pretty clear that it wasnt my fault anyways so he kinda screamed at that stupid driver and he was tryin to make me feel better as he noticed i was so ****ed off :rofl:
