The availability question, locally
Recency works for you here: most local doors are models still being made. Photograph the label inside the door — end stile or top section — and availability is a five-minute question rather than a gamble.
The second match is cosmetic — sun-aged paint against factory paint. Decide up front whether a close-enough section is acceptable or the door gets repainted as one piece after the repair.
A dent that has not creased the section across its full width is cosmetic — the door runs fine with it indefinitely. A full-width crease has lost its rigidity and earns the replacement.
How Texas City compares next door
For context around Texas City: League City's median build year is 2002 at 145 mph design wind; Webster's median build year is 1992 at 130 mph design wind; and La Porte's median build year is 1983 at 130 mph design wind.
Texas City's own figures — 5.4 cycles, median build 1981, 10 ft — are what this page prices against; the neighbouring numbers are why quotes should be local, not metro-wide.

How much does it cost to replace one garage door panel in Texas City?
$275 to $660 per section fitted in Texas City, TX, matched to the door's wind rating. Whether a matching section still exists for your model is the deciding factor — check the label inside the door first.
Can I leave a dented panel alone?
Usually not. Unless the crease runs the section's full width or the door has racked out of square, the dent is cosmetic — $0 to live with, which outperforms both the section swap and the whole-door pitch.
