Is it possible to buy replacement body / chassis without sending it in for repair? A515-51G-5718

PeterStrouhal

I have a problem that when I was upgrading my computer's RAM, when I went to close the RAM door (a smaller door within the bottom panel) I accidently broke one of the tabs and now the door won't close completely. This causes the computer to shut off (cuts power) whenever I am carrying it anywhere. I was hoping to replace the back panel or just that little RAM door but I am unable to find any parts online. I want to be able to do it myself because it is cheaper and also because I need the computer for work and can't deal with long shipping times.

Is there anywhere I can buy such a part or do I have to send it in for repair? Note I have opened a repair case with Acer and put in a message that I would just like the part.
