    that would be a huge feat of reengering to acomplish. it would be pretty cool, defintly different. make sure you take lots of pics and write a detailed tech artical when you do it this weekend.

    What i didnt think about was the chrome part of the door, mabey i could cut it out but it may weaken the structure of the door.

    It would be worth it for me only if the door didn't have the pillar in the middle. Because then if the rear window came down and the side windows came down it would look sweet.

    edit: justin got it! that looks sweet

    I dont know if i like it or not, it would be a great experiment for a car to be crushed.

    I'm thinking the wheel well would get in the way of what you want to do here. You might approximate that look with dark tint and a blacked-out pillar, (see attached) but I don't see this happening without massive modification.
