Best way to sort this, i need the car back asap so need to put it through another MOT seeing as everything else is done bar the doors. it failed on the passenger door due to sharp edges.

Can i just put tape on it, and do a quick fix for the time being? as still waiting for pannels to arrive?

I've seen duct tape just put enough on neatly and it will be fine

this is what i was thinking, It is only temporary as respray is begining of june so need to get it through mot to get it up there, and the way things are going with the partners car, its getting desperate :/ that way its a case of just clean up the arches, and get bulbs, tighten the brakes up as i cocked that part up my self so they leak lol and fit the cv boot and coil overs, i mean could do all that in one day! this door situation is taking months! car has been in repairs for 3 months nearly and getting a tad fed up

Duct tape will be fine, doors aren't structural. I've done it many many years ago lol
