Default Someone hit my door!! help

I work at the mall...I park like 100 feet from everyone...the mall was busy yesterday...it looks like someone scraped my passenger door with something. theres a thick hairline scratch thats 3 inchs long...and two bumps...Does anyone have any idea if they can fix just that part....bc my buddy said they might have to order a new passenger door skin...if so does anyone know how much that cost? let me know please...this sucks!

Being its on the metal door they can fix it... if it was on your plastic bumper then you would need a new skin.

you can have it fixed but scratches are just a normal part of wear and tear an excesive amount of scratches...that is something to be concerned about.

You want people to be *sure* about their answers, but aren't posting pics. I think to accurately assess the situation we need some photos.
