Re: McLaren got wrecked on Sat... a few q's....

make them put a new door on. welding a skin on is not the best idea
for a car your planning on keeping. the places where the skin is
welded back on will rust from the backside out(because there wont be
any paint on the backsides of these welds. eventually the rust will
bubble through to the paint side of your ride.
