some wanker thought it would be a good idea to bend my door back some time in the night 
i heard an alarm going off at about 1.00am but it was really quiet and when i looked out of the window it had stopped and i couldn't see anyone around. it wasn't til i come to get in the car this morning i noticed it was done. was bent about 4 inch away from the car 
noone has been in the car tho just unlocked it. im soooo pissed off that some one could do it and for what?
going to pick a new door up tomorrow,
how many shades of black did they make corsas in? i just hope its the same colour 
sorry rant over

Fuckers! They'd be the first to moan if someone done that to their car Luckily nothing was taken but still a complete pain in the arse and unwanted hassle
Hope you get it fixed ok

You might be able to bend it back first before you buy a new door. Although it may be weaker now.

we have bent it back but it just looks a mess and it is weak now plus i can see day light through the gap so if it rains i think water would get in

When mine got done over I bent it back at the water still came in your doing the right thing getting a new door. Get a couple of bin liners on the seat so the water doesnt ruin it

Yep the glass is a right bitch to change Im sure it will the right colour though. As already said I think the corsa on came in one type of black so you might be in luck

Just slip a credit card at the back of the badge and prize it off. Doors are a peice of piss, i swapped my front windows last week for tints, was in and out withing about 40mins, and that was stripping 4 doors down, and back together again.

Back seat whore 
Tbh getting the door in is the main thing but also changing the locks over can be fun, Perfect time for you to learn a bit more about corsas really. Practice on one in the scrappy first or you might bugger something up like i have done in the past
Sorry to hear tho, maybe we should start welding gussets and mini strengthening bars into our door

lol cant agree more 
Along with - everytime you moddify something you earn a new creak or bang whilst driving 
90mm down and half stripped is not nice, needs to be drowned out by music lol.
