Custom flush exterior door handles.

[BRAAP]

Many years ago when I first saw the C3 Vette push-in-to-open door actuation, I thought it would be rather cool to use those actuators on the S30, upper most portion of the door just under the glass. Dodge Viper uses a similar design, NISSAN GTR has flush style handle as well. C6 Vette has an interesting recessed grab…

That idea faded over the years and recently resurfaces with my father customizing his ’77 Chev Short Wide pickup and was contemplating shaving the door panels and using electrics, like so many others have done. He wants some thing not stock, but also something not overly done, yet functional, and reliable. In our discussion, this idea popped back in my head, has anyone else had similar thoughts, concepts for the Z that they have done, planning or would like to do?

I realize this is not really “performance” enhancement, tough feel it isn’t too ricer either, or is it?

I was going to just shave my door handles and go with something like the C6 vettes use, but those C3 handles might look really good on a 240.

The GTR handles are by far the best, I love the look of those as well and will definately make the shaved look and still have a handle that you can pull on.

Mucielago would look great (might be a bit expensive though)
