. Unfortunately, you cannot repair it yourself. You’ll have to visit an auto body repair shop where they may be able to repair the damage using specialized tools.
Auto repair technicians may even suggest you have the entire door replaced, depending on the severity of the damage. This procedure can range widely in price from $200 to as high as $1,300.
Be sure to get repair quotes from multiple shops before deciding what to do next. That said, if the price of this repair seems a little too steep, consider trying the
