1. Just take it to a body shop and let them handle everything (order door skin, mirror) possibly use bondo and paint.

2. Find a complete door on Craigslist of any color and put it on and then take to shop just for paint.

I would say the more work you do on your own, the more money you would save. I don't think I would half ass my car and bondo it back.

If I was in your shoes I would go to a junk yard or Craigslist as you mentioned, find the parts, and then just find a good body shop to paint it.

Yeah, and even if the body shop does it all the right way, just him ordering the door skin and mirror will cost more than this right?
