When you shave door handles, if they are done right, the should be welded , and repainted ...

Why would you get raped by a company to buy their overpriced sheetmetal? Go to a local metal supplier and get a 12"x12" piece of sheetmetal and then take a piece of paper and use a pencil to trace over the indention after the handles are off. Cut the paper tmeplate out and trace it onto your sheetmetal. Simple as that. Have someone weld it about 1/32" below the surface of the door.

lol you dont bondo closed holes. get a thin piece of like 16 gage sheet metal and do like flip said. if its done right then there is no need to bondo anything. maybe a very very thin layer of body filler to just smooth out the area

Depends on how good of a shaved door kit you have. Alot of people have problems with Autoloc systems, including myself. If everything is wired correctly it shouldnt be that bad on a daily driver, all you do is hit a button to open the door.

That looks @!#$ing retarded unless you smooth it over so there is no line around the handle. I might look into it but Id definetaly smooth over the door.
