hey thanks for the link! 59.95 for a skin, so would i need to cut the other one off in the crease then weld this on or does the skin just go over top of whats on there now ? Would i need the inner part also then put it on the skin and put them on ?

If you have never done rust repair panels before, then I would have a good body shop put the panel on and then blend the paint over it. Actually, you will only need the very bottom section of the repair panel. Just enough to weld into your good door metal. Most body shops will butt weld the new panel piece in with either TIG or oxy-acet to avoid warping the metal.

Ya ill see how much they will charge to weld the new piece on then ill just hit it with some primer and have it line-x'd the same color instead of painting it.

check your local body shops too about the rhino liner. i went to check on having a couple things painted on my truck and he said that they have there own brand,not rhino,and he would have charged me about half as much. he said it wouldnt be as thick though. just a suggestion. i just love how thick it is. donnt let people tell you its the same or just as good as that roll on stuff,cause its not. not even close to the same quality.
