does anyone know how much a new passenger door skin cost. the day before school started i went to get a hair cut parked in the back alone came back and found a dent. later found out that one of the kids i go to school with kicked it don't know who yet but i cant wait to find out. its a weird dent its horizontal and is pushed out not in i don't think it can be fixed so ill price out a new one. they probably did it cause i drive an auto z. the kid who did it its friends with the local drug dealer that rides in a crazy looking civic with a stock engine and he makes fun of me cause i drive an auto z.

I suspect the labor will be about twice your estimate, skinning a door is very labor intensive

fwiw, just telling us the car was vandalized was sufficient, the story about drug dealers and people looking down on you for driving an automatic car was not needed, may have been assumed but doesn't help your online persona

So which is it? You don't know who did it, or you do know who did it?

Not that it matters either way - without pretty hard evidence there's not much you can do about it. And getting into some pissing war with someone with a cheap car that they don't care about does nobody any good except your body guy. Why is it not covered by insurance?
