to get my antenna shaved would have been $400 (thanks to other driver's insurance, this mod was free).
same price for the keyhole. any good body shop can do this. they have to cut out the lock, weld another peice to the back of the lid with a metal blank to fill the hole and then prep and paint it to look like it was never there.

i have the rear completly shaved.
it will run you $300.00-400.00 and any bodyshop can do it..
they remove all parts of the lock, weld a piece of metal over the hole, then fill it and respray the trunk.. it looks really nice.

Wait until you look into shaving handles etc. Then it can really add up. But call your local shop and see what they say. Also another options are tech schools, like High Schools. I went to one and the autobody/automotive etc shop there had great equipment, did great jobs, and only charged for parts. Since it was a school and do not pay the students they can only charge parts(this is in Massachusetts anyhow) and not labor (which is where most of the bill comes from) see what kind of price they give you. Only downside is sometimes you have to wait a few weeks longer to get your car in there due to lines. But something like this if you can wait you can save $ too.

Yep I am in Ma. I live in Lowell.
As far as shaving the door handles, to get in you have to have solenoids installed that will pop open the dorr via remote control. So basicly you just attach it to the keychain like the one that comes with out car. basicly it unlock the door in the same type of way that the trunk does. Or the way the hood does when you pull the handle for it. Push the button and doors unlock.
This place can show you the kits etc www.autoloc.com
