So I was thinking the car would look much better without the ugy lock cylinder showing.

What do you think?

I was thinking of doing that as well since I'm painting my door handles, but for a daily driver, and having problems with the battery in the key fob everynow and then, I would'nt risk it.

Looks nice tho. Where'd ya get it?

Ah, but low key fob batteries are of no concern young grasshopper.

Theres still a lock cylinder in the hatch :)

I may be old but I'm not dumb, I thought about the possibilty of a dead battery in the car or key fob as well.

Where did I get it? I know this guy that works at a dealership and he hooked me up, It's an SVT right side end cap.

Chromie is getting the passenger side smoothed. Driver side needs a lock cylinder, since I don't have power door locks.(Just painted the cap, actually... 8) )

The right side and rear doors use the same end caps so yes they come in black textured finish.

And a shorter driver or modded Recaro seat brackets so they don't sit so damned high.

I love the Recaros and maybe if I didn't have the stupid sunroof I could use them but I prefer to not have my head rubbing on the headliner.
