Everyone okay?

I'd try car-part.com and junkyards too. Swapping doors around isn't too hard of a job.

thanks for the car parts site, looks like i am going to be calling up those places to get prices and see if they have the parts in my color available.

and by isn't too hard, do you mean i can do it on my own when i have no idea what i am doing easy or i can trust the dude at junk yard to put it on for me easy?

It seems that its just replaceable parts that got damaged

When I was working on getting my 93 camry repaired, I got 3 Complete doors and two fenders from a You-pull-you-save for $75.00.

what kind of damage (cost) am i looking at if i need to have someone do the installation for me? knowing me i will probably cause more damage than work done trying to get it fixed myself

any one have experience with the shops near shea stadium in flushing queens ny? i don't need it to look perfect as it will just be my everyday go to work car.

thanks for the suggestion

Doors are easy. Four bolts and then a wiring harness. The hardest part is carrying them. You'll need help when putting them back on, but it's still really, really easy.

it looks like I might be able to find some parts (door, mirror) to repair my camry if things goes well with project92camry's parts camry

after taking care of the 4 bolts and a wiring harness, what do i do with the locks if I want to be able to use my old keys.
