By "shell" are you refering to the skin or the structural part of the door?
I think is would be safe to say that the opinion here is that repro body parts have, shall we say "quality issues". Realmongo, from Mass., came all the way out here to sunny Washington State to get a good used NOS door. Good original parts are getting tougher to find but patience (and travel) may be needed.
Be patient and keep looking (as suggested). Remember, you have an OLD car, perhaps older than you!
