Daughter 'slighlty' wrecked my MINI - door replacement question
Trials and tribulations of having a 16 year old daughter I guess - who knew that the house could shift while pulling it into the garage.
Needless - the passenger door from my MINI Convertible is damaged beyond 'what will buff out'. I'd like to hit a salvage yard and see if I can get a replacement in Chili Red, but everything's from a hardtop.
Do any of you know if the R50/R53 doors would be a replacement for the R53? I can't find anything online that definitive for the entire door. Interior bits would be pulled off of the existing - I'm just worried about the main door itself.
And since everyone like to see carnage.

You might want to look into a used door. EBay has good deals or your local wrecking yard. Craigslist too. You should be able to get a door for $300. Then just swap the parts over after it is painted. If you get lucky. You will find a red one.
You could also get the door rescinded. This will be cheaper than a new one. But probably more expensive than a used one.

Hopefully this swap out wont be too hard.
