Ow that sucks... Made me cringe just looking at the photo.

I'm honestly surprised I've never been hit by anybody after 5 years of driving in this godforsaken state.

You should ask your chosen body shop if they're comfortable retrofitting some Miata doors to your Z; should prevent anything like this from happening again.

Miata doors never die... you just take them off and hammer them onto your new car.

Do you live in Los Angeles or Louisiana? Your location states "LA". Very different jurisdictional climates.
