I don't know how much the door will run, but go to car-part.com and find one in a used parts yard near you. Then find a rep body shop that will paint and install it for you. Though, if you want a good spray job, have the quarter and fender blended, you will never tell you were in an accident. I am taking for granted that you take good care of your mustang of course. Hope this helps.

I'd be worried you crunched more than just your door. Don't let a girl influence the way you drive. I noticed it helps me to listen to music that reflects the way I feel while I'm driving. Otherwise you'll be very tempted to be wreckless simply because you're pissed off, and you just want to stomp on something...

and the closest thing to that is your gas pedal, and usually that only means trouble :x Hope this helps. I know everyone has their bad days, but things like this will only make you feel worse so do try to be careful.

You cant let a girl get to you. A long time ago my stepdad told me of a story about a young kid that wrecked his 67 Mustang on some back road. According to the kids girl there was a fight and the kid took off in his Mustang. She got a call about 2 hours later that her bf was in an accident. Police report stated he was driving at a high rate of speed and missed a turn. Kid took out a guard rail and clipped a few trees ripping the motor from its mounts. The rear axle was in a tree. He died on impact. He was only 19.

As for your Mustang, take anything off the old door that you can reuse on the new door to save yourself some cash.
