shaved doors, popers and trunk popper

Has anyone done this yet and which kits have you been using? where have you bought i? I'm thinking about doing it I was just wondering if anyone else had a good guide or knew of a product that was better then the rest. Isn't there a keyless entry/alarm system outh there that can use poppers?

I do door kits and poppers all the time at my work. Make sure and get at least a 75lb actuator for the door. Do not cheese it and put trunk poppers in the door "which will work but will burn up after time" a good 75lb actuator is about $120 each. Trunk poppper is like $20 and any keyless/alarm will run them. Whoever installs them for you get them to run an extra set of the motor wires out for say the rear pass door so that if your battery dies or whatever, you can reach under the car and use these wires with a 12v batt.

Why because the car has an already clean look and I wanted to clean up the doors a little more. Bro you need to chill, now if I was to stick a sticker on my car (and say that I had a 1000 WHP just because of that), get a huge spoiler, or something rediculous like that then maybe. But you don't even know my attitude towards this car or racing for that matter, yet because I have an imagination and a love for this cars clean look you want to establish me as a ricer. Please re-establish your think and maybe ask what type of person I am and get a feel of who I am before you call me a ricer.

Thanks for that that was unknown to me, then I may just do the trunk and leave it at that.

Thanks for the incouragement, but it looks like if I want any time on the track I should keep the handles. Oh well maybe I'll just go buy a honda and do that cause if I get some nitrous I can blow everyone away with my hatch...... <- retarded and was supposed to be a joke.

I think it'd look good. I'm into the clean look as well, I say look into it... While you're at it why don't you look into shaving the sidemarkers, and the gas tank and having a pop-out tail light?
