NOS Door Shell Opinion

Do you think a pair of GM NOS door shells for $200 with some minor dents a good price? GM Direct sells them for $468 each. I think the damage can be easily refinished and still save alot of $$$'s.

Yes. Aftermarket ones from Keystone at cost are $115 each. Sounds like a deal.

Depends on how minor the dents are I guess. Can they be worked out without body filler?

$200.00 is a great price for a pair of new doors. They won't be NOS though if you can still buy them from GM.

One door has damage on the top edge corners and bottom edges and with a slight indentation in the middle and the other door has a good indentation in the middle. I believe they can be pulled out with some filler. Maybe they aren't NOS, as someone still have them in stock, but they are true Genuine GM door shells. I can get some pictures later.
