Source for rear passener door? 200

I just purchased a 1993 245 with 99K. The car is in great shape, but there is one really annoying dent in the rear passenger door. It is a fairly large and "soft" dent that covers much of the door below the upper molding, and a small piece of the rocker panel. The paint is not broken.

Question: How easy is it for a body shop to take care of this? Would anyone advise that I take off the inner pannel and try banging it out myself?

As an alternative, should I just go get another door? The problem would be finding one with the same stuff (silver outside, black inside, electric windows). Otherwise I'd just have to go to a body shop anyway to have it painted. Anyone have a suggestion for a source?

Thanks,

Michael
