seeing how ive been in and out of the shop for the past couple months i think I can say a few words...
first off....i feel for you...my car got hit and run'd not too long ago...and it was much worse.
from the looks of things it seems like you have a dent right on the body line.... If you are ever going to "show" your car...i would advise telling your insurance and getting a whole new blank door to retain the right out of production look.
if you really dont care much on detail then I would just say fix the panel. but trust me on this one...you will ALWAYS notice that it was once damaged...i dont care if the best of the best professionals fix it...if there is damage on the bodyline it is always noticeable to a trained eye.
g'luck ...

Sorry to see your car get nicked. Hate to say it but this is the reason I don't loan out the car...even to family members. If it had to happen I'd rather I was driving it.
