the other concern with shaving doors on the 4th gens is most of the time the filler ends up poping back out leaving an outline of where the handle was.

Thats an old sig i did with the doors, door handle and lock shaved, looks clean for sure, but idk how well shaving a door handle on a fiberglass door will turn out in the long run

I did mine (well aware of the complications on 4th gens). I went to the junk yard and cut 2 sections of door off a donor car, and made it fit as tight as possible so that I just had to bond the edges and then I filled the void from behind. It looked great all through prep and paint until it sat in the sun. Then you could just make out the outline. Two years later, it has never cracked the paint or anyother issue but if it is realy cold or realy hot you can sometimes see the outline.
Oh, and I used a kit from metra electronics.
