Most carriers total a car if the damage is more than 70% of the value of the car.

i kinda figured it. but this car is 1 year away from being classified as an antique not to mention that this is a EURO car or gray market, so im thinking they will re consider

first that much damage shouldnt total your car unless it was pretty rough.

second, they wont buy a new door unless a used one cannot be found...which is unlikely since i have at least four in my basement.
