Looks cool, seems like it may weaken the handle a bit though. Get any extra horsepower by cutting down on weight? Improved aerodynamics? I'd like to see the dyno Just kiddin man, I like it, I'd like it better if the handle was metal though.

I saw the metal ones on the Lower 40 jeep and thought it looked cool so I drilled mine and confirmed I like it so Drilled Billet handles are put on the to do list.

Haven't done the doors yet, I was rudely interrupted by a broken axle shaft so my Jeep is on an overnight stay at the dealer for the next couple of days.
