Front basement door repair

[rbev2308]

Let my parents pull my Alpine from their house to mine. When hooking up, left tailgate down and punched hole into the door. Door is 58 x 28 and has a 3 x 3 approx break where styrofoam inside is visible. Did not go all the way thru the inner side but not desiring this to get wet. I seen some online places and ebay that has compartment doors. Do not desire to take to a dealer, would rather do on my own. Questions are:

1) Is this something that can be repaired or does the entire sheet covering it have to be replaced?

2) If you buy a standard door of this size, I can easily swap over the locks and latches, how would you get color match?

3) Is this something I can order from Keystone or a dealer on my own?

4) How do I get the color code in case I do desire to order via an online place

Appreciate any advice. In the big scheme of things, it is really no big deal. They feel bad considering they have owned and towed way more than me.

Can't/won't be able to help you by trying to answer your specific questions but thought I'd mention that I also managed to damage one of my cargo bay doors by happening to leave it open while attempting to close the bedroom slide above it. The open cargo bay door was 'pulled inward' by the flange on the slideout, slightly bent and the/a cam lock on the door was 'punched' partway through the door.

Fixed it myself with a fiberglas kit/gel repair kit and didn't worry about the color. Just ordered some Good Quality Vinyl Sign/Decal material (12" roll) online: Amazon: check out http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_no...eywords=oracal which I used to create a nice, arcing graphic which I applied over the damage and ... it's done/gone/satisfactory.

You can check out out Trekwood. They will have your door. Probably be a couple hundred bucks. If it was mine, I'd pay the price. I like personally like original replacement parts and not " will / may fit " aftermarket. Your nickel however.

Good Luck
