I was wondering if anybody would have any idea were i can find a driver door panel factory painted to have a perfect color match, i am afraid that if i take a panel to a body shop and have them paint it that it is not going to match. So if anybody has any idea please help me out, the door looks horrible it needs to go!!

Moved it from General to the Interior, Exterior forum. Since you may end up bringing the car to either a dent pulling place or a body shop for repair, your post probably would've been better off if you'd posted in your regional i-Club forum. You didn't fill out the Location field in your i-Club member Profile, though.

Post pics of the damage, if possible. You might get by with paintless dent repair.

That really sucks man, I actually had someone ride their bicycle right into my rear drivers side door (from a perpendicular angle). It left a dent that was over a foot long. The bad news is, since I am in China, I am lucky that I didn't have to pay him for riding into my car, but I had to pay for the repairs on my own. Considering the cheap cost of labour here, I was able to get the door looking brand new again for under 100 US dollars (and also got rid of the some other door dings at the same time). Anyway, the advice that people gave is very good, check your local regional forums, or if you are in a big city you might be able to a brand new condition door at a junk yard. Sorry now to have any better advice, I just wanted to offer my sympathy
