Paint OR Replace Hood, Door!!??

Featured Replies

Hi ALL!

My 97 GT Wagon has some spotted rust problems! They are in a few places! Some around the windshield, around the rear fenders, the other places are the drivers door and leading edge of the hood! I've gotten some bids on fixing...around $650.00. My question is this! IF I find a DOOR and A HOOD (IN PRISTINE CONDITION) at a salvage yard that are my color, White....am I better of replacing them...or have the body work done on what I have now???

 

Thanks, SubeeTed

Replace them if you can find good ones. I do have a good drivers door, but its red. Hey for $50 what do you want. You can have it painted and then install it. Its from a 96 Legacy wagon, you'd have to check the interchange to see if it would bolt right up. You pay shipping. Lmdew@hotmail.com

 

By the time you pay the body shop to fix the dents or cut out the rust and weld it up, the replacement and paint will be less.
