Shaved door handles ?

Im thinking about getting rid of the door handles and shaving down, repainting, and getting the door popper locks. Anyone here done this or have any information about it? Before I get to far into it, I'm curios to see how much an estimated price would be on something like that. I know, if the battery dies, Im in trouble, I know lol.

Well I found a site that sells them for the coupe. I guess Im going to have to be the first. Im getting new side skirts and I'll have to have that done then too. I usualy buy the paint and the body guy is a very close friend so I don't think it will end up being that much. Locks were $99.00, Paint is $56. We'll see.

Its not hard. Ive shave and installed the solenoids on a few vehicles. Hardest part is finding where to hook the soleniod to the door latch. You will also need some relays and figure out how you are going to wire it if you trying to use the stock keyless entry. Id suggest and aftermarket keyless entry as you will not need door locks anymore. You can also intall a manual door pull just incase the battery goes dead

just curious, did anyone ever manufacture that front fender he has on that car, I've heard some bashing that vent on there, but personally I absolutely love it.
