hi all my doors are starting to rust here and there and im finding it hard to get new one so has anyone repaired there doors and if so wot did u do??? weld in plates or just bodyfiller??? and how long have they lasted
I have had small sections of my door cut out and then plates welded in place. It doesnt last that long at all. You are best off getting a new door or getting a new skin put on your old on if it is just the skin rusting. Make sure the insides are properly protected

Same here, worked fine, i used fiberglass stuff first becuase there was a lot of the door missing when i i finished grinding!
