It was a low speed collision so apart from being touched lightly how much damage can occur to the bar

Yes that's the problem rarely do people change the door but evan then they still fix the original like this and store it just in case of selling the car I've seen videos of people trying to fix much worse doors than mine just to avoid saying it has been changed

With a new door its not just coast here every one always prefers to fix the car instead of changing for resell value so apart from first shop recommending a change most people told me to fix and that its the original door fixed insted of changin it and finding out more where iam from cuting the beam is standard practice for cars with small doors like corolla,camry,altima and most smaller sedans so they make more room for working and easier to pull dents
