I believe CamaroCassanova would be the person to ask. I'm pretty sure he has his shaved. He's had other things shaved too, I believe

Ive looked into getting mine done. And i got an estimate of around 1200 bucks...they said becuase the door was plastic...it was hard to get it to blend it so it couldnt be noticed...i told them i would open the door myself for 1200 dollars

LMFAO!! I hear ya on that one. $1200 is RIDICULOUS. Look in the sport compact (ricer) section of Jeg's, they have some company that sells a universal kit for like $70, but you better know what you're doing.

Here's the good news: 3rd generation doors are steel, so it would be MUCH easier to do and make work than on a 4th generation plasitico door like mine. Probably would cost much less as well, probably around 5-700 bucks with paint (at least out my way)

I had a guy offer to do mine for free/VERY little. He would also shave my side hood vents and my rear spoiler. I just didn't like how you had to open the doors with remote, seeing as my doors are just under 1 ton each.

4th gen

I've got mine done, well i've had mine done 3 time's now all at different place's and you still can see the f-ing outline's of the old hole's . Personal I love them, but with all the problems I've had one being the paint and two the fact that water get's past the weather seal on the lower window and break's the selnoid's (sp?) I wouldn't do it again. I lied, I would they're just to cool.

I was thinking of doing this as well, but heard NHRA requires the driver's side door handle. Can anyone verify this? If not needed. Im so doing it :P
