shaved door handles or gas tank lid??

anyone on here have shaved door handles and/or gas tank lid?? saw this on a GTP..the gas tank opening was altered to be BEHIND the taillight on the drivers side, the original opening was then sealed up and bondo-ed and painted, looked awesome...the taillight was on some type of hinge and when it was in its normal position, there was no way to tell anything had been done..also shaved door handles would look nice too on a CL-S

Funny, Someone who had a 300M on another board did the same thing. He really tore apart that car. It didn't look bad, but it's not my taste.

it would be cool, but then you can't race the car ... what you can do is get TL rear door handles, and put them on the front of your car ... who uses the key hole anyways ???

Do you mean because the tail light is technically not "solid"? If so I think you could get away with it at most tracks.

That would be a pain in the ASS to put gas it.

No its because most tracks require you to have front door handles in case your car gets in an accident and they have to pull you out. If there arent any handles they cant open the door quickly

yep - and that's why those uniframe fiberglass cars either run without windows, or have a hole cut in the lexon so you can reach a custom lever.
