Looking for after market door pulls

Hi,

I dont have much of a performance question more like a mod question. Well maybe performance because it will increase Aerodynamics when the window is open.

Alright enough joking around, I got broken into yesterday. They used a metal bar to pop up my door pulls. Is there by any chance a after market door pull that stays flush with the car? Meaning totally dissapears inside the door.

Thanks for the help and once again sorry about posting this in this section but seemed the most logical place to put it.

G.

Dont think so, but do a search for "door lock mod" as a lot of people have cut the bottom of the existing one so that when the door is locked, it sits flush.

Very popular mod, very easy, and free!!

what do you mean by the door pull? the buttons that unlock the door or the peg you pull up on?

if its the peg then heres a suggestion, i cant find the thread but someone here once bought a new lock and cut it so that when the doors were locked, it would sit flush with the door panel

I dont see how they could use a metal bar to unlock the door by the lock peg its self. If youre saying that they used a bar inside the car Im assuming that they probably wedged the door jam and used a long reach door tool to push the unlock button. Otherwise they may have used a slimjim...which grabs the linkage inside the door so cutting down the peg wouldnt be of any help.
