That's pretty much what I was thinking. I was really interested in the MFactory LSD, but they are not formally releasing and selling to the public for a few more weeks, which could turn to months. The Quafie LSD is tried and proven, so hopefully it holds up. Thanks for the insight!

The proper way is to tack weld metal squares to the inside of the door, fill the outside with "Bondo Glass", sand and fill the imperfections with Bondo body filler. If I decide to shave my moldings again, I will go this route.
I'll tell you what I did on my last Integra, but many will swear it will not hold up and it's going to crack, etc. But it held fine for me. I sanded and cleaned the inside of the door & quarter pannel. Then I used small peices of thin alluminum from soda cans, scuffed them up with sand paper, and JB Welded them to the inside. I held it flat with Duct Tape. Then I used Bondo Glass to fill the outside, sanded it smooth, and applied regular Bondo body filler to the imperfections. It held perfectly for 3 years of daily driving. It even survived a wreck at 70 mph. I had to use a Sawzall to cut my passanger door off, I kicked the hell out of it with steel toes and beat the hell out of it with a 50 LB bar, just to test how well my method held up. Nothing happened! It never cracked at all!
I take no responsibility if this method fails for you, it makes more sense to do it right the first time around.
