I have a quick question. Since the cars body is made up of a composite material, do you just fill the entire door handle up with body filler?? Or do you actually patch it with some sort of plastic/fiberglass,and then fill it with filler??
Jim. Gary is not "lending a hand" - he is doing it all !! 
I am not allowed to help - he just let's me take pictures

* UPDATE : Day 3 *
The Mod Meister is back at it for a 3rd day in a row. I am still not allowed to help in any way.
He tackled the rear letters first
Just a few high spots. Almost ready for putty and primer.
Left to right : Y2kvert4me (Tom from Wisconsin), Cajundude (Jason from Texas) and the Mod Meister, GB Vette (Gary from Virginia)
The Mod Meister working on my driver's door.
Have Dremel, will Travel
Oh yeah baby!!
Ready for putty, final sand and primer
Grond is coming together at the last....

All I can say is I hope you never have a short and your battery gets drain because you will be locked out ?
Looks really good, please keep the pictures coming.
