Re:shavin
----, i hate you guys. I'm gona actually help this guy out
to shave the handles, you'll probly have to pop the door panel off, and use a socket/screwdriver to remove the door handle, I'll leave the "how do i open the doors now" question up to you. no you are gona wana get a piece of sheet metal and cut it to fit the hole, have it about an inch bigger then the hole all around, either weld it(------ your welds out, don't warp the panel)from the inside, or use Jbweld. then your gona wana fill the hole with Fiberglass bondo, sand smooth, and then put a layer of normal bondo, sand smooth, and the glazing putty.
That a ghetto way of doing it, the rear way is to weld in a patch the pefect size, and then grind it all smooth
Don't just fill the handle in with bondo, it will crack.
