Default shaved door handles

I was wondering if anybody knew an estimate for getting shaved door handles. Is it around $1000 per door or less?

I hate to be that guy, but at up to $1000 per door your 13 year old Accent isn't worth the effort unless you plan to keep it for a very long time.

Learn how and do it yourself. None of it is difficult enough that you couldn't fight your way through it. You might want to have it painted professionally after you finish the body work and have it prepped and primered.

For the cost of the first door you could have bought a welder and all the stuff to do it yourself. Just sayin.
