It can be done a t any bodyshop already, but I'd say the most popular would be the door handles and the fuel door. My cousin shaved the fuel door and has his filler bedind his taillight. He has to fold it down at the gas station... sick as hell!

In order to do bodywork such as this, knowledge of basic metal shaping properties and proper tools are needed. It is not for beginers.

Shaving handles on a civic makes no sense at all...how about you come up with some nicer handles though?
