Best replacement doors?
I've heard nothing but bad things about replacement doors, especially the imported ones. Has anyone had any experience with the Dennis Carpenter doors? I see in the catalog it says they're imported also so for $300 a piece I'm afraid to try it. Thanks

All imported doors are garabage, from DC or any other place. Find a used door and strip it down, paint it, etc. I see them all the time on ebay and in craigslist, etc. I would put 3 pounds of bondo on an OEM door before I used a Taiwan door.

Doh! Your right. I was thinking of the OEM hoods they had. I doubt they are OEM doors available still.

I live in the border and i go across very often (laredo txs.) you can get doors in the mexican side junkyards for as low as 500 pesos (about 35 dlls) in pretty decent shape almost no rust but I dont know how much FEDEX or UPS will charge fore shipping knowing that this OEM doors are really heavy, if someone its interested feel free to ask, saludos!!
