Hi Ben
In my build I used the interior grab handles that are mounted on the roof for the passengers to hang onto.
Check around a wrecker's yard and you can find some not too bulky slim ones which don't look out of place.
I had mine recovered in the same leather as the interior.
If you look on my build thread, (Dimi's build,) you can see them.

This is what i got with the slc kit, or similar. so it wont have a pull, just a handle, below. No rod either, im just using wire.
I dont think you'd want to shut the door by it. Has anyone done any cool pulls in their build logs?

Hi Ben
On my 40 I used interior roof mounted grab handles as door pulls.
There are some nice slim grab handles that look quite good.
I had mine covered in the same leather I used for the interior.
If you look at my build thread you can see what they look like.

Would something like this work? I bought one of these for my wife's FIAT 500 to replace the OEM Tail Gate Pull. They are beautiful and hold up very well! Black leather with the red stitching really makes them pop!

Ben,
Why not go all 911 GT3 RS?

I am using the pulls from a Toyota. Can't remember the exact year. Easy to find in the bone yard. The rods and levers are there as well. They are easily cut and bent to fit.The opener is located on the front bottom of the door. They come in several colors. The higher end models I believe were chromed. I wish that I had decided on the remote openers before I did my door panels. Here are the pulls. and levers.
You might want to consider the remote openers as they come with most of the security systems.It is kind of nice. Hit the fob opener and the interior lights come on for 30 seconds. I added door opener buttons as well because I wanted to alter the system so the fobs wouldnot accidentaly open the door(s) while moving(like butt dialing).I set it up so that when the key is in the run position it disables the opener system, but the buttons continue to work. I also added poppers to help open the doors. With the handlles at the front of the doors, pushing them open is not at a good angle, especially for the females that might be in there. Along with the openers I added a safety open door button under the driver's side wheel well. Since I am using relays, to operate the solenoids, the safety button will work if the fobs die or the system fails, and that's as long as the battery has power. I have yet to have one die to that extent.
Later on I want to add a GPS system so the car can be tracked if stolen
