 It's Dean's car - Dean's ride - all 4 doors are shaved, solenoid poppers installed and the hidden battery terminal is provided (in case battery went dead.)

uhm.. We have a VERY good thing going... 4 doors.. family car.. hauls more stuff than any sport car, and STILL outperforms them... and you wanna make this a 2-door, heavy(29xx and up) car, with an un-useable backseat, unless you crawl through the windows or between the front seats?
Okay... buy a 3000gt to fit all those quals.(except the 3Kgt weighs in at ~4200 IIRC)

woa that looks realll nice ... i was think about molding them shut but it might look a lil weird since the door will be short in the front.. idk i never thought of just shaving the back.. did u put poppers in the back or just shave them.. also what i was thinking of is installing some hood vents ebay vents i was gonna get them cut so they are real vents and then get the hood cut and mold them in one on the side where the intake is and the other one on the other side..so they are semetrical... i have a friend who will do it for free becuase his dad owns a shop..let me know what you guys think i dont wanna do something to tacky..i kno they r stick on vents but i would cut them inthe vent part and mold em in just incase you guys didnt know...im against unfunctional parts lol

Thanks to answer your questions, yes I did put poppers back there and a spring so when I push the button the solinoid pops the door and the spring opens it up a few inches. I shaved the rear handles only because everyone that shaves handles on 4doors always does all the doors so I wanted to be different adn my freidn ahd a silver SVT that had all 4 handles shaved too. As for the vents I think that it's a great idea as long as you mold them in like you plan and be sure to post pics. Aaron
