I shaved the door handles and converted the side windows from 2 seperate windows into one single frame.

ahhhh, that's what was messing with my head. couldn't figure out why it looked so diferent - duh!

making it one big window opening really cleans up the lines, but it was there for a reason - you'll have lost a bit of torsional strength from the chassis. Top of the C pillar was one of the weak points in the B110, and they added the fussy looking, but functional bits in the windows on the B210 and B310 to address that.

other weak points of the B110 were behind strut towers, which was also braced in the B210 onward, and the florpan had much more 'ribbing' and was alot stiffer in the B210 onward too.

but the car looks great!

Is this a B310 or a B110?

I reckon a roll cage would fix the stiffness problem.
