that blows that it also got the back door 
but anyways that pattern is proably from the door itself vibrating in and out, or what ever scraped it vibrating, or jerking back and forth
and inorder for that to vibrate like that, it would mean that they had to be moving at a decent speed and not just some crawl
but as said before, it almost seems like a plow maybe
also pm'd

, and they still need to paint the whole door, so i don't see why they would need a "paint line" cover (aka pin striping) on there

haha yeah pin striping was just a joke... u think they'd be able to fix it okay or would just have to replace the door? cuz yeah its alot of little dents it seems almost impossible to get perfect again... but yeah i dont see a plow truck being n e where considering there hasn't been snow down here for a while now

also make sure they ethier used a CAPA certified part, or an an OEM honda part, they fit the best, and need very little work to fit correctly, if neither are available, i would rather see some used OEM doors on there then a "shitty" new part

a new door would be best, but probably not going to happen as said, nothing is stuctially wrong with the doors, and that reskining a door is a perfectly acceptable way of fixing damage like that, much better then some bondo slapped on there, and calling it good

yeah it sucks... gosh and can insurance companies refuse to pay for oem parts and expect u to get depo parts... even if the wreck wasn't ur fault?

only issue is they then may then refuse repairing it and just total it sadly (if close enough), but yes technically it should be the same quality of part though as OEM, anyways you have to look into your contract and state laws to be more exact though

Racer
Possibly a pneumatic auto-chisel. basically a miniature jack hammer? it would cause that interval patter and the puncture/scuffs.
But either way i'd have to go to jail if i found someone doing this to my TL.
