yeah....a pic would be good so we can judge the severity.....Sounds like a previous repair seeping through bondo??? :shruggy:  but need to see it.

ill try to get some pictures but there is no bondo in the door i have it compltely sanded to the metal ,i showed it to the guy at the paint shop and he said if u leave mud splatter on ur car it will discolor ur car but if u leave it for years itll eat into the metal through the paint ,he told me to keep sanding untill it was gone unfortly a hole developed when sanding it was weird it looked completly solid just black spots where the mud had been i just bought the door for 100 bucks now im shopping for another one  :brickwall: me and my brother both thought it was damn near perfect at the yard had factory paint on it and the mud flacked off i have bad luck on buying used parts is there any where that sales the skins .thanks

Well...is the door in that bad of shape???  I mean....it sounds repairable.  Show us the pics....maybe the severity is more than I'm imagining :scratchchin:
