    shaved rear door handles

    This morning i real realized i have everything i need to shave my door handles except proper paint, -- Which I'll never have.

    So i installed a door actuator and took my handle off, taped over the hole and plasti-dipped the tape just to get a quick visual if it's worth perusing in metal

    It's neat like i thought but honestly didn't give the huge visual impact i suspected it would, like on the Chevy's. I probably will end up un-do-ing what i did, instead of actually going thru with the shave.

    I personally feel it makes the car look bigger without the handle on.

    If anyone's interested the door actuators are like $5/each and are plenty strong on banggood.com

    Enjoy my insanity

    it does look a bit bigger its just that the color is not the same as the oem paint and if possible to cover up the edges of the rear then it would look like a wagon haha. but great idea!
