yes, i have electric door poppers. The paint job cost me about $900 this time. its because my paint(which shall remain codeless...(jonnyM)...heheh) is really hard to match, and he said he put down a total of 11 layers to get it right. plus he had to blend the paint all the way back into the rear quaterpanels.

That looks delicious.
So, when you pop the doors with the remote, do both doors pop, or can you choose which one to open?

Looks great but I personally liked the darker red better.
I like the shaved doors, very well done.
