As for the door handles, i had them smoothed off and now use solinods to release the doors.

I have just finished moulding this to my wide arch sd1, this is called a cat rear bumper (it is a 3 part bumper kit that is designed to fit over the original bumper). I have had to mould this two my car as would not fit because of the wheel arch.
