|  Shaved Door Handles: Yay or Nay. Lets see some pics.
I am considering shaving off my door handles but i have never seen 93+ fbodys with this modification.
Shaving the door handles would make a fbody look very sleek and clean IMO.
POST UP SOME PICS.

I think most tracks have a rule that they won't let you touch the track unless you have handles, so if you've got dreams of time slips, I wouldn't do it, but if your ride will never see a closed curcuit, go for it! I want to see how it looks! I want to shave my fuel door and antenna. I already shaved the front license plate cover! I like my cars like I like my women...SHAVED!!!

Swat | Haha, Yeah most tracks don't let you run without handles god forbid something happens and you're stuck inside.
I'm not sure how it would look. | |

Now its time to work on the doors.
How hard was to shave the door handles?

Swat | Damn! I go the track often.
But i am getting tired of e/ts and the track car image. So, the 94z will be the clean street car and my lsx car will be track car.

well the key holes were already punched out, so i put a piece of tape inside the door panel on the backside of the hole and used bondo to fill it in, sand it down until it was flat. then i would relay bondo down to fix imperfections and sand again. i did this process 4-5 times until it was good enough for my liking. | |

That little of a thing really makes that big of a difference. Well, it is white also.

Shaved door handles and gas door could look insanely clean... Or really out of place, lol.
I think that shaved key hole though. Subtle, but not, lol.
