indeed it is. i've gone through face lifts like there is no tomorrow.. i think my next rear is the buddy club 2 style. not as low, and it's a bit smaller to flow w/ the rest of my kit better.

i was told that shaving the door handels is illegal for road use. and also, you cant run at the track if your doors are shaved.

it's not illegal at all. tracks, sometimes they let you in.. sometimes they dont. it all depends on which track you go to.

the reasoning i was told its illegal for the street is in case youre in an accident that fire rescue can get you out a lot quicker by opening the door than by busting the glass. i was told its a safety thing, if your door is unlocked and they can open it and get you out w/out busting the glass out then itd be safer. makes sense to me.

yeah it does make sense and thats why you cant do it at the track.. but some cars came w/ shaved handles from the factory back in the day so they gotta include them too. oh well.
