Gowesty has an ABS plastic door panel that should be bulletproof. I would do a very thorough check to make sure that the window seal isn't leaking and allowing water into the door panel and that the drain holes in the bottom of the door aren't plugged. If water is getting inside the door and you cover it with more plastic without addressing the underlying cause, you will have a rusted out door very soon.
