I'm shopping for a used car. Someone is selling a Toyota Camry 2004, but one of the passenger doors is banged up.

I can't seem to find any door replacements online. Can a replacement door be had only at a junkyard? What's an estimate to get this cosmetic dent fixed?

The front and back bumpers also has some cosmetic damage, but I think these parts can be replaced easily. I found a replacement online (primed) for $105.

Anyway, aside from this, the mechanical parts of the car seem to be in good condition. Surprisingly, the mileage is really low for a 2004. It only has 50k miles. My 2006 car has 120k miles already. He's selling it for $6500, but I did a ballpark appraisal on Edmunds and saw some listing for similar models, the market price seem to range from $4000 to $4500.

I think $4000 would be a good deal. I'm only aware of 3 recalls for a 2004 Camry. Since the last one was from 2011, he likely has it fixed already.

you need to take it to a mechanic to make sure it's running fine.

but the door probably isn't repairable. It looks like the sheet metal is creased and split. It's the best selling car in america and 9 years old. The junk yard should have quite a few of them. Call around and ask for the door in the right color.
