Hey guys, I was wondering if I went to a body shop, how much they'd charge me for each door?? My passenger side door isn't that bad, but my driver side door is pretty bad. If someone could just let me know if they went to a place and had it done, how much it was It'd be very appreciated. Thanks

 

I've never had it don'e but to break it down for an R&R cost,, first the time to remove the fender is 2.6 hours then the time for the hinge is about 1.1 hours plus factor in the time to align the door properly & depending on where you are body shops seem to have a rate of $35 to $45 an hour plus the cost of the new hinge (thought I've seen peep say $80 or better but could be wrong) you've got almost 4 hrs ($140-$180 or better just for labor) plus whatever they want to charge you for the hinge.

For about $5 & the cost of your time, you could get a pin/bushing kit from you local parts store & do it yourself

I was told $400. My door is totally f'ed now so I am getting a door from a body shop guy for a $100 and getting it put on for $60. Not a bad deal, I hope.

in south east third generation i think thats what is stands for, any way under the tec articls there is a article how to fix sagging doors i dont really know why third gen doesnt have a article about this because this place is so much better

 

Hey, you gotta start somewhere. I remember when this place was a sh!tty version of a message board, and all the tech got linked to another website. I am the webmaster for the site you listed, and let me tell you, 90% of the people who hang out there, have met each other in person either at a track,or just a "get together of some sort, and are all friends, and we are there for each other, unlike the BS that goes on here. If the site is so sh!tty, why are you linking people to it?

While I can say no negative things about this site or the way it's ran now ( I used to be a big detractor of the way this place was, but when Dirk put his foot down and redid everything he got mad respect from me) But the people here leave a lot to be desired, most of you are pretentious and petty.
If this place is so much "better" than SE3G then dont link back to our god damned tech articles you thankless piece of skunk ****

 

thats not nice..........go read my reply on sethirdgen.org......you lump of hard dog semen
