i think it looks amazing shaved but you loose the protection the handle gives when you open the door. if you notice the handle protrudes just enough to be the furthest thing out when you open the door. giving you a sort of door bumper as it may.

buuuuut i love the shaved look and would do this if i was already fixing a door issue or whatnot.
