i worked at a body shop and u shouldnt just paint the door. the color is going to look off, if u r going to paint a door u r going to need to blend into either the fender or quarter panel and possibly the bumper depending on how off the color is. if its original the color is going to be faded so the new color is going to look off regardless..
