Ok guys... this is quite embarrassing... but I just picked up a S13 and the previous owner has shaved the door handles and put door poppers on it...

this is going to be my track car, so obviously as a safety thing i cannot run door poppers and shaved door handles... and they're extremely lame... but i got a deal on the car...

anyone have any input on what would be the best route for deleting the shaved door handles and the poppers?

new doors? cut a new door handle hole on the door?

thanks guys

if you have a very common coloured s13, i say just find a pair of new doors. and sell the shaved one to some ricy teenager with a s13 loll

and if you dont care about the mismatched door colours..well this is the way to go.

If you don't want it to look like crap, best option would be to find some decent doors and swap them out

yup swap doors you can get pair of doors for under 100

looks like thats my best bet... I wanna respray the car anyways, so mismatched doors isn't an issue.

ecology is having 50% off next weekend too

as far as new door locks... the nissan dealer can help me out getting new locks you think?

k.man · 01-26-2012, 01:18 PM

ya locks should be no problem

blueshark123 · 01-26-2012, 01:35 PM

yea they can but it will pricey your best bet to find someone parting a 240 so you can get all matching locks and a key

Are you in a rush?

Create some threads:
"WTT: shaved doors for non-shaved doors. Straight up trade."

Someone will take you up, you only need to find one moron.
