that'd be pretty cool. but like someone said further up, daily drivers might want to focus on other mods.

this is awesome for a show car though. i like it.

There are many reasons...I'll list a few.

1. Dead Battery = Can't open doors
2. Leave Fob inside car = Can't open doors
3. Winter time = doors iced shut,can't open doors

I agree as i have shaved handles on my dd. Also most tracks will not allow you to run your car like this, so if you want show and go.. one has to be sacrificed.

Also Ryan stated 1st in the world? (in bold)lol! I know what you meant but come on man, maybe 1st on a 370Z but enthusiast have been shaving door handles for Decades. It looks great though. I can't wait to see how slick and clean it looks with the door closed. did you put in a hide away switch?

Haha Danny, he was referring to the first on the 370!! lol Yes its not practical for a DD. I am using popper solenoids and its just another key fob that you have to press with the OEM one.
