Can a Replaced Car Door Be the Same as the Original?
1 Answers
Generally, the car doors replaced at 4S shops are original factory parts. The processing precision and manufacturing materials of original factory doors are the same as the original ones, and the quality also meets automotive manufacturing standards. The only difference lies in the painting process—the original doors are painted along with the entire vehicle during manufacturing, while replacement original factory doors come unpainted and are painted separately during installation. Precautions for Door Replacement: When replacing a car door, it is not advisable to opt for aftermarket parts. This is because the stamping molds used for aftermarket doors differ from those of original and original factory parts, resulting in precision gaps. Additionally, the materials are different, leading to varying rigidity levels, and they are generally cheaper. Typically, the sheet metal of aftermarket doors is slightly thinner, and some anti-corrosion treatments may not meet original factory standards. These are important considerations—always distinguish between original factory and aftermarket parts and avoid being lured by low prices. Function of Car Doors: Car doors provide access for drivers and passengers to enter and exit the vehicle, block external disturbances, and to some extent mitigate side impacts to protect occupants.
