01 acura cl door help

Hey new member here. I bought a used cl this winter and long story short less than 8 hours and 34 miles after I picked it up I was t boned by another car on the highway. To top it off she has no insurance and no money. I was able to put a lien against her in court but I don't expect to see a dime. I just got a house and have no money for a new car so I'm working with what I have. The car drives great still but the passenger door and door post are shot. I want to know is there anything compatible with my body style for doors? I'm having an extremely hard time finding a reasonably priced replacement door in my area. There are several first gen cls and Honda accords for parts. Besides going car to car and checking does anyone else have any insight into my problem? Thanks

01-03 cl/cls doors will all fit. You can not use other models.

You can also go aftermarket, but stick to CAPA certified parts for a reasonable aftermarket fit.

I'm trying to save every penny I can. Hondas are dirt cheap why such a gap?

Honda is a economy car. Acura is a premium luxury car. That's why the price gap. cls are rare and hondas are dime a dozen.

$100 for a door panel is dirt cheap.

That's half the reason I don't want to just get a new car. It's got to say something that I cannot find one parts car that's compatible when they range from 12-15 years old.

To me people are saying these cars are reliable and they love their Acuras, will not let them go to the boneyard.
