need help you guys im takin my baby to get fixed!!

whats up guys as you all know i got into that accident about a month ago but oh well i need your help!!!....heres the predicament i sent acura an email and this is what the guy said......The right hand rear door (complete) is $714.56 plus tax and the outer skin only is $284.57 plus tax. Determine if you need the entire door or just the outer skin as you can see there is a substantial price difference. Neither one comes painted from Acura so you would need to take it to a body shop for that............ now what do you guys think i should do should i buy a whole new door or just the outside skin heres the pics please help me out thanks

pics:

looks like a skin should be fine. Did it damage the side intrusion beam or inside door panel? If so, then you would need a new door, but if its just the outside of the door thats damaged, you should be ok with just a skin....

by the depth of the dent, it seems that the damage went all the way through so you may need a whole new door. i would def call junkyards maybe you will get lucky and find one

careful though, the extra labor to remove the old skin and install the new skin prior to painting may make a complete door a better deal...Definitely check salvage yards!!
